Lake Erie College Top Questions

well i have to say that i honest ly have not been in any classes yet i just barly got enrolled to dat so it will be an exciting experience

This is a very accredited school for the local area. I have recieved a lot of good feedback from people when I tell them I go to this school. The only thing I do not agree with is the amount I have to pay, the education aspect is not worth the price.

College is the first time in many students' lives when they are independent. I had to make decisions for myself that I have never had to think about before. As a freshman, this first semester threw everything it had at me. I had never had to study so hard. High School was a breeze for me academically. However, college proved much harder. I think I stood up to the challenge quite well. There were certain side effects though. I had some problems with anxiety. I felt like I had a million things to do all at once. Forcing myself to take a breath and relax helped me overcome this. I could never have realized this by staying at home or commuting to college. No matter how hard it got, I forced myself to look ahead. I realized I had to grow up sometime. Why not now? Honestly, high school was not the greatest time of my life. Now, I am involved and starting a new chapter. I even joined a sorority! My new sisters are the best friends I will ever have. College has been invaluable to me! I am looking forward to the next three years.

Lake Erie College has provided me with a wonderful learning experience. I am a teacher candidate in the Early Childhood Education Program, and I have studied under the most knowledgeable and experienced professors that money can buy. They have all been very kind, helpful, and supportive of me, not only as a student, but also as a person. I feel that I have developed trustworthy and meaningful relationships among the faculty in the Education Department. I know that I can call upon their assistance if ever the need arises as I endeavor to complete my education and fulfill my career dreams; each professer has given me this assurance. This school has promoted my academic success every step of the way, and I believe my professors modeled numerous other attributes that have encouraged me to stretch and grow as an individual. Today, I am more confident about my capabilities, less doubtful about my future, and better equipped to accept and handle new challenges. I have been encouraged and empowered by LEC to rise up to the ultimate challenge of making the world a better place because I am in it. This is what LEC means by "Get In. Stand Out."

My college experience has given me a new start on life. I have been able to start over with a new outlook on life and my perspectives toward career options. I have been given many opportunities, such as study abroad, that I would not have otherwise been able to envision otherwise. LEC has given me an opportunity to fulfill my dreams, persue my goals, and strive to make a difference in my life, my children's lives, and the community. I will miss the safety of college life but look forward to the new chapter and the many adventures that await me. I would not have found the courage without the guidance and ecouragement of LEC!

There are many things I have gotten out of my college experience so far and I have only been here for a semester. I have attended classes that challenged me and helped me learn new things. I have met so many new people and made many new friends. I have adapted to the environment and have learned to take care of myself and be responsible. I am working with others while getting and education. I have also learned how to communicate with my professors. College has truly helped me expand and grow. I am glad I am attending Lake Erie College and would love to remain here the next three years.

First and most improtantly, education is something that I desire and have gained in my college experience. I play baseball and have been the team captain for 3 out of my 4 year on the varsity team. While playing baseball I have developed a hard working personality and excelent leadership skills. I have learned life lessons while attending college in and out of the class room. I believe that this college was/is perfect for me, and has developed me into a well educated, responsible, and all around good man. I am a senior this year and these four years have have prepared me for the next chapter in life. I look forward to starting my career and implementing everything i have learned. I remember in highschool I was unsure what to do after, whether or not to attend college. I chose to go and it was not doubt the best decision of my life.

This school is accepting to the type of person I am and I felt free to express who I really am, and because of this I have met many new friends. I also enjoy playing a sport here at Lake Erie College because it makes me more rounded as a person, and it also helped me to stay healthy and fit. When playing a sport it has brought me closer to many of my teammates, I even consider some of them as family. I really love my teammates because they know how to cheer you up when your struggling and we all are willing to help each other out with schoolwork or whatever problems we have. Coming to this college is one of my best choices I have made because it teaches me to be more independant and it prepares me to get ready for the "real world". I also love how small the classrooms are because you can really get to know your teacher and they can get to know you as well, and the teachers are willing to offer help outside of class.

So far I have found out in my college experience that I am a harder worker than I thought. I found out that, atleast at my college, that it is just like highschool except I get to study things that I enjoy. It has also shown me how independent that I am. Living in a college environment is a good way for me to see some of the things you have to deal with in everyday life. Although it is slightly easier because the college has food, electricity, running water and they put a roof over my head. I find that as time goes on that I aquire more and more responsibilities. This means learning to do my taxes, pay bills such as my cell phone bill, and figuring out how I am going to pay for my college. Hopefully next year I will find myself figuring out what I want to do for the rest of my life.

To this date, I have gotten further interested in my major, and I have made many new friends. It has been valuable to me because before attending, I was unsure about my major. After more classes and more exposure, I knew that I wanted to pursue biology and medical school. Not only has my future become more clear, my present has gotten better each day of my attendance. I meet new people all the time and make new friends all the time. I am glad I am attending Lake Erie College.

From my college experience, I have learned to be focused on homework and classwork. If a person is focused on these 2 thing then he or she will do fine in college. It is very valuable to attend college because after graduating college a person can have a good career.

I have made many great friends from near and far. I have also grown as a person and did many things I never could have imagined doing. I went on a 3 week trip to Paris over the summer with the college. A large percentage of the student body is athletes, and I enjoy attending their events and cheerinh on the Storm.

Growing up, I knew I would enjoy college, but I did not know I would love college. In today's world, it is obvious a higher education is the most important accomplishment of today and the future. I have gotten a new life out of college. I have made goals which are higher than I would have ever thought about it. I have become an adult and have begun a life of my own. College is a life all in its own and I have made it into a growing experience. In my life, it is just my mother and and e support each other. She makes an annual $15,000 a year and that is barely enough to support and full time college student and grown women with health problems but we support each other. It is more than valuable for me to go to college because I want to take care of my mother. Stress is part of her everyday mind set and I want to take it away. The higher education I am receiving is more than a dream and the experience I am given is worth the world.

Throughout my college experience I have learned so much and met some wonderful people. College is one of the best experiences and I think that everyone should give it a try. If I wouldn't have attended college I would not have gotten to have this wonderful experience, and seeing how to get the chance to further my education. The thing that I like about my college and has made it easier is the small class sizes. I get the opportunity to get one on one time with my professors and get to know everyone in the class. I think that attending college has been the BEST choice that I have made in a long time.

I came to Lake Erie College as an Equestrian Teacher/Trainer major, something that most people hear about and say "You're a what major?" Horses have always been a huge part of my life and so it felt only natural for me to continue on with my education to be a professional teacher and trainer within the industry. The greatest thing that Lake Erie College has done for my college experience is provide me with the tools and oppertunities which might not have otherwise been available to help me succeed. Horseback riding is very expensive, and while my family comes from an upper middle class economic status, we also have 4 children in our family, all of which either went to/are in college. Four college tuitions is a lot to pay for! My parents did the best they could, but it was Lake Erie which gave me access to better horses, better trainers and more people within the industy. My own riding and skill level has also improved tremendously while I have been in attendance at this school. Overall, the most valuable aspect of my education was being given the tools to succeed.

I have learned about people in the real world. How cruel people can be, how judgemental people can be, and how unhelpful people can be. I have also learned that some proffesors really want people to learn and succeed, and some professors are only their to get their pay check and go home. Its been a value to attend my school to learn about the real world and the real faces of people. It has also been a value to me to learn about my career field and what i should really expect when i graduate, not what they tell you in fairy tale stories of a perfect world after college.

There are many college experiences i have learned at this school. One of them is to be responsible and do the best that i can in everything i do. As long as you give your best effort you will have a very good chance to be successful in the near future. In college you have to be great in the classroom and outside of the classroom. Without good time managemet it is very hard to keep your events on time. When you are an athlete you have to make sure you get your studying done on time and that you go to class everyday to be successful. With good grades and performances on the field there will be time you can go hang out with friends and reward yourself for the hard workyou hve achieved on the field and in the classroom.

I have learned much about the business world and how competitve it really is. One must obtain at least a bachelors degree to have a decent paying job but should for sure go for a masters degree or MBA. Lake Erie has taught me to be more focused on my academic learning and to be more organized in my overall studies. It has also made me a better person and want to have a stable life and be financially stable in every aspect of my present and future.

I have been trying to go back to school for ten years. Now that I'm finally back in, the thrill of learning is rushing back to me. It's so gratifying to read about and study things and see the information come together in my mind. I never thought, for example, that I'd be good at, let alone like, math, but I find myself excited to practice problems in my Algebra class. Engaging my mind again is exhilarating, and knowing that I'm teaching myself how to better plan and organize my time makes me feel good about myself. I love learning, and I love that at the end of my studies, I can take what I've learned into a profession where I can grow, instead of just continuing the daily grind in the retail field as I have been doing. Getting tests back, engaging in class discussions, and knowing that I "get it" really makes me feel like I'm becoming a more complete person, with more to give back to those around me who might be stumbling.

I have had the opportunity to obtain real world experience through Lake Erie College. It is one thing to go to school and learn about what you want to do with your life, but it is an incredible opportunity to gain real world experience towards your major while you are still in school. At Lake Erie College I have had the opportunity to work with two companies on class projects. My major is Marketing and our teacher had as partner with Chick-fil-A of Mentor. We not only did this exercise for the classroom, but presented our final seasonal marketing plan before the owner of the store. He loved the work we had done so much that they have actually implemented the plan! This kind of real world experience can not be duplicated and gives students at Lake Erie College an edge on others as we graduate and enter into the workforce.
