Kennesaw State University Top Questions

Definatley visit the college before commiting to anything....what is right for your friends and family may not be right for you. Ask people on campus when you visit how they like it. Ask about classroom size and what people do for fun in the community. Compare and contrast schools that you may be interested in and try and view it as a growing experience as apose to your comfort zone. Also ask about the financial aid opportunities and carreer opportunities after graduation!

Don't burn any bridges. Your professors and classmates are your best networking tools. You'll need them when you're trying to make it in the real world. It's nice to have a list of contacts to call when trying to find work. Also, the sooner you figure out what you want to do, the sooner you'll graduate.

Always visit the school before applying, when you have the chance to learn about the things going on around campus.

I would tell upcoming students to go visit all colleges they are interested in attending: you cannot base your decision off reputation only. This also means, a student does not have to pick the hardest school academically, or the best school athletically; pick the school that makes you feel most at home. That is what will really make you happy. Also upon making your decision consider the location. If you want to be go into medical school but hate big cities, Vanderbilt would not be a good choise because you would hate the atmosphere it which you have to live. College is not all about school, it is a way of life for a few years and in order to be happy you must love every aspect of the school you choose!

I would first like to advise that when picking a college to go to, the most important thing is where you think u can stay focused on school. The next thing is whether you are going on a athletic scholorship or not, pick a school that is at ur level in academics for you major/interest. Another thing to look at when picking your school is, to pick somewhere where you think that you can have fun and meet new people that will enhance your college experience. Last , go where you want to go as a student, not where other people think you should, and always look into financial aid because there is so much out there to help you through. Stay focused!

I would suggest that you choose a school based on your personality and financial ability. Always go and take a tour of the campus and dorms. I also think that living on campus your first year allows you to bond with your classmates and make more friends. Don't go home every weekend. Stay the whole first month without visits home. It also helps with responsibility. People who live at home all through school have a disadvantage when they are thrown out into the real world. Most kids at school don't come home to home-cooked meal. You learn to fend for yourself. It's a fun experience and you won't get all it has to offer if you live at home.

You should understand first that most of the people at any college you attend are exactly like you in terms of their intentions. Some students may have higher ambitions than others, but they are all basically trying to further educate themselves and establish a stronger foundation for their future. You'll probably concern yourself with many things trying to decide which college is right for you, but remember that the most revealing quality of an institution is its organization and level of professionalism. You want to be treated like an adult no matter where you decide to go. If you are lucky enough to find such a place, go into it with responsible abitiousness and willingness to associate with people of every kind. If you can learn to adapt without changing who you are then you will certainly not fail to have an unforgettable college experience.

Look at the degrees offered. Look at the cost of living and the population of the school.

Give yourself plenty of time to tour campuses. Spend as much time at your potential schools to get a real feeling for how campus life is and how the school really operates. Make sure to talk to plenty of students,not just your tour guide(they are hired to say nice things about the school) to get a real honest opinion. Most importantly choose the place you want to go the most, do not settle, this can be the best time of your life and you can get a great education as well!

make sure its what the students like and they went there to look around before they go there
