So far my best experince at Benedict College is being apart of the SC Life Undergraduate Research Program. This is my best experience because it gives me hands on experience with my major. It's a valuable to attend cause it"s a steeping stone to accomplishing my futrre goals and career.

Prior to attending college, I worked for about a year before I had even considered going back to school. Once I had made it up in my mind to buckle down and do what's right for my future, there was no turning back. Since 2008, I have been attending Benedict College. This school has great teachers, small classes, and many people who are willing to tutor. Because there is a small amount of partying going on, time is better spent on studying and preparing for the next class date. I feel that Benedict College has been valuable to attend because the career centers are engaging and willing to help with my future career goals.

If I could go back to being a high school senior I would give myself advice about being able to interact well with people that are different from you because you can learn new things that could help you and you can say you've experienced that type of person. I would also start some type of college fund for myself because there are alot of expenses that go hand in hand with going to college that can be essential to how well you do in college. I would save up money for anything i needed for college including books, computers, and other materials because the economy is at a stand still at this moment and it"s hard for my parents to help me out and support the house hold at the same time. I would think as far ahead as possible because my finacial situations now are affecting my grades.

If I could go back in time to talk to myself as a high school senior, knowing what I know now, I would tell myself to be honest, not to trust everyone so easily, and to keep your eyes on the prize. I would tell myself to be honest because people tend to lose their self and act like someone they are not. It is just so much easier to be yourself. I would tell myself not to trust everyone so easily because people will take advantage of you and no one wants to be taken advantage of. Boys will be the main ones to attempt this. The last thing I would tell myself is to keep your eyes on the prize. What I mean by this is to remember what you came to college for. You came to college to get in education. Do not put partying above your education. You do not want to get to the end of the semester and be worried about if you passed your classes or not. If you concentrate all semester you will not have to worry.

You are an intelligent and thoughtful person. Taking the time to acquire a formal education will enable you to truly find your niche in the world and to beter appreciate all you obtain.

Enhance your character through hard work and scholastic involvement while you're young so you can enjoy the success you achieve that much sooner. All these things and more including the opportunities to solidify important and exciting social and community bonds come from the rigors of the collegiate experience. Allow yourself to enjoy all the advantages that you've earned and become a college graduate. There will be plenty of time for work, money, friends and family. Go ahead and commit to the path; the world will be ready and waiting for you at the other end.
