How can I prepare myself for life after college?

Going into college next year, my biggest concern is how close I am to life after college. School becomes such an essential part of life that it is a little scary to think of finally reaching an end to my education in a few years.

How do you cope with rejection in application process?

Some of the schools I will be applying to are really hard to get into, no matter the GPA or test scores, so I want to be prepared for the pain of seeing the word "DENIED". If you were rejected by a school, especially your top choice/s, how did you deal with the #disappointment?

Do potential employers look at whether you went to a state school or a private school? Does it sway their decision?

As a New York native, state education would be a cheaper option. However, my #1 choice school is a private school in Pennsylvania. Do employers have a preference of which of these schools they would rather have someone go to? #college #future
