Anyone who does career counseling ?
I am trying to figure out what I want to study in either for trade school or college. I currently am unemployed and 17. I need a job now as well that pays well and long term but I am not sure if I should do a program or internship at PCC instead because the job market is really bad right now. I am also not sure whether I want to have a remote job or in-person job after I finish either college or trade. If anyone who was in a similar situation or is currently doing trade/college/internship/program what your advice is. I am just really lost right now and I don’t have much time because I finish high school in about 5 months so I need to have a plan after that. I know there is different topics any questions but if anyone can please share your feedback on this I would appreciate it.
Which School?
Would you spend twice as much to go to a better school for engineering if you also like the campus a lot more? #Spring2026

How should students evaluate the ROI of transferring colleges before making the decision?
Hi! I’m currently a sophomore college student considering transferring, and I’ve been thinking a lot about how people talk about college as an “investment.” What I’m struggling with is that, unlike traditional investments, students don’t really get clear ROI projections before making huge financial and life decisions like transferring schools. For professionals who have been through hiring or recruiting (or both), how do you personally think about the value of where someone went to school, and what advice would you give someone trying to decide if transferring is “worth it”? Thank you so much for your time! #Spring26
What advice do you have for someone choosing a double major?
I know that being a musical theater major does not guarantee a financially sustainable career. I would like to double major in something that would allow me to have a stable career option with flexibility to perform and pursue my passion.
