Would it negatively affect my college application to have quit a minimum wage job after a few months?

I was thinking of quitting my tutoring job to make more time for preparations for the upcoming school year. Would this show colleges that I have a lack of persistence? #college-admissions #college-bound

What makes a college perfect for me?

I am a 16 year old girl from Puerto Rico. In August, I'll officially be in 11th grade. That means that it is time to start looking for a college. As a newbie in college researching, I've noticed how many colleges exist worldwide. Sometimes, picking the right one seems impossible. I need advice on how to pick the perfect college for me. I say perfect because I am not a fan in making mistakes, especially on vital decisions like choosing the place you will be studying for the next years to come. #medicine #psychology #teaching #college-bound

How do I know what college to attend?

Hi, more recently I have been looking into college more and I am wondering simply what to look for. I know that looking for a college can be stressful, and I am wondering if there are any minor details that you, or others you know, may have overlooked when choosing the right college. So, I'm wondering what you would recommend are some things I ask when on tours of colleges or things to research before attending a college that is often missed but may be helpful. #college #college-advice #college-selection #college-bound

Which college should I go to?

I am deciding between Harding University and the University of Alabama. Harding is smaller and farther away, but it simply feels like home and I know a lot of people there that would make my college experience more fun and comfortable. My best friend and brother go there as well. However, there is nothing to do, which bothers me. There is also a strict dress code and curfew. The University of Alabama is much bigger but closer to home. Both of my parents attended UA. I would know very few people there, but there is a lot to do. But, the main thing to do there seems to be just partying and drinking, which I have no interest in. I know Harding will help me grow spiritually and I will have a more personal relationship with my professors, which will help with recommendation letters for grad school. But at Bama, I would have the opportunity to possibly make more meaningful connections with better-known names. Plus, football! What should I do? #college #college-selection #college-advice #college-bound

Do you take extra classes to minor in something?

I'm confused about the whole major/minor thing. Do you get a minor from select classes you're taking or do you have to take extras. Are minors required? I want my Bachelors in International business and an Associates in Communications. Does this mean I'm minoring in Communications? #college-minor #college-bound

From an insider view, is college what you expected?

From the massive stadiums at football games with fans rushing the field to Project X style frat party movies, is college what it's made out to be? As a student with aspirations of a Ph. D in Neuroscience, I'll be spending a lot of time through school. What is the social atmosphere like? Can one achieve an internship or research work as a freshman? What is dorm life like? Do you begin to enjoy your roommate more, or begin to not like them? Is living off-campus beneficial in the Sophomore through Senior year? #college #college-admissions #college-bound
