My college experiemce taught me to be focused and motivated. I went into college after having a vibrant social life in high school. I could not wait to meet and become friends with people at the univeristy. This univeristy did not offer me that experience.

The greatest value i have received from attending college is education. I am in the process of completing the core curriculum at the community college I attend. Every class is a new discovery, something fresh and new that I learn. The psychology class I am currently attending has greatly benefit me, to experience a diverse group of class mates and can also learn from them through in class participation. Each professor has impacted my life in a positive way in giving encouragement to continue my education and with their professional teachings has led me to have an open mind to learn from every bit of information taught in class.

It has truly opened my eyes to the world and showed me what else is out there. I grew up in a community that was not very diverse, so this was a shock at first. But eventually i came to love every minute of it. I have grown as a person from being at this school, and this experience will affect me for the rest of my life.

Although, I am only a freshman in college, I feel as if now is the time when you learn the most. Attending Georgia State has definitely taught me how to manage my time wisely, as well as responsibility. In college, there's no one to make sure you do your assignments, remind you when things are due, or even wake you up for class. You're responsible for yourself. It was definitely hard to get used to at first, but I am definitely a lot better at completing assignments ahead of time and making sure to attend classes. It has been valuable to attend Georgia State because the professors all have a passion for their subjects. It is evident that they know what they are talking about. They are always available to assist you as well. You can't really place a value on a good education, which is definitely what I am getting here at Georgia State University.

My experience has been valuable to me because it has truly instilled discipline and determination in me. I am currently an active duty Army soldier and had to take night classes primarily 4 weekdays of the night for 2 and a half years. I am proud to say that I have had a perfect attendance and was still able to manage a 3.24 GPA achieving my Associate's in Business Administration at Georgia Military College. There were times after exhaustion from working nearly 12 hour work days in the Army where I had to maintain my mental bearing to attend class at night. After my college experience within the military I have grown immensely as an individual and proven to myself of my perserverance.
