Albertus Magnus College Top Questions

I havent satrted college i will be attending this fall. But i do plan to get alot out of it

It has opened doors to jobs that I would not otherwise be able to apply for. It has also given me confidence to be in the presence of other people.

I would tell myself to find a major ahead of time and focus on achieving it to the greatest extent. Then I would recommend myself to find a school that can help me further achieve and embrace my ampitions while at the same time assisting me with my financial and career goals that would enable me to relieve monetary pressure from my family and allow me to obtain my degree without having issues and a pit of debt after I achieve something. I want to finish school so that I can live my life achieving my career goals, while at the same time raising a family of my own so that I can enjoy life for the treasures that I have been gifted with and make life easier for everyone else by doing what I'm good at, which is making them safe, and keeping everyone living peacefully and happily.

I would probably tell myselft to be prepared, be focused and know what you want. You have to know yourself and your limitations to be successful. Do not overwhelm yourself, but always challenge yourself. To have an enjoyable college experience you have to be prepared for many things. You have to be organized and able to delegate time to your studies. You should select a major that you know you will want to do for the rest of your life. Be selective when choosing a college, make sure you feel comfortable their and that they have courses and accomidations that suite your needs. Study, Study, Study!!!

I would have entered college straight after high, the learning process is still fresh. I decided to re-attend college in my late twenties, in my experience I became more distracted and not as focused on college as I should have been.

Make sure that you look at schools before you pick one! Take a tour!

Stay focused and complete homework assignments early to avoid unneeded stress and being overwhelmed. Don't be afraid to go after dreams, this is the time to make them a reality.

The first thing I would tell myself is that I need to look for more scholarships becuase now I have too many loans and I am looking for scholarships now but I am doing this late. I also would tell myself to apply myself more to achieve better grades so that my college could give me more money. Rules and quotes I would give myself would be, Procrasination gets you no where! Studying does help, craming does not. Also learning to budget now will prepare me for later. Also start to diet now because the freshmen fifteen theory is true.

Stay active, never let go of what you believe, and choose your own options, dont follow the crowd.

I would give myself the advice to: Make sure you do whatever it is that you want to do. There are no limitations, other than yourself. If you follow a career path because you want to make a lot of money, or because you're pressured into it; you're setting yourself up for failure. In order to succeed in the college lifestyle and post college life, you need to be confident in yourself and know where you stand on important issues. You need to follow what you love, no matter what any friend, parent or advisor tells you. The people who are most successful, end up this way because they took the initiative to realize what they wanted and applied it to their education. You can't go into a college hoping you'll 'figure it out along the way', you need to know exactly what you want out of yourself, your education and your community and go after it. My biggest regret was jumping into a college without knowing the implications ahead of time, and coming out in debt without the benefits of the promised "education." College, life and education is what you make it.
