Snead State Community College Top Questions

What should every freshman at Snead State Community College know before they start?

Susan

Well, if I could go back to high school, I would make sure to start college immediately. I started work right out of high school and started a life on my own. At the age of 19, I had a set of twin boys and that is where I have been for the last 19 years. One of my sons, repeated the very same mistakes. He has a wife now and a son that is one year old. Needless to say, I have 6 in the house now instead of 4. My son and his wife work but do not make enough to live on their own. That is why I am applying for a scholarship. I can not afford to pay for classes muchless nursing school. I was going to take my anatomy II, starting today but could not afford to pay my dues. I really want to go to school for RN studies. Thank you for considering me for a scholarship.

If i could go back in time, I would tell myself to apply for more scholarships and to concentrate more, study more , and do more homework.

Looking back now I wish I would have studied more. I would tell myself to study, work harder, and listen better in class. I am not very good at paying attention in class and that is one thing I needed to work on while still in high school to help me improve my college listening skills. I would also tell myself to study. I was very bad about studying for tests and quizes. I never really studied hard, I would start to study then stop. Now I am not good at studying at all. I am following in the same path about studying because that is what I am used to. I need to start studying more, and I would go back and tell myself that.

As a high school senior I wanted to go straight to a major university. I am glad I chose otherwise. At the time I was not too happy about this decision, but I went where I got the scholarship. I am convinced this was the best decision I could have possibly made. I would reassure myself that going to a community college does not make me inferior to my classmates who attend four year schools. By going to Snead State, I have never been just another face in the crowd.
