is a unique experience, where u learn new stuff everyday and your social increases. i have gotten great friends and life time experiences.

I have attended University of Hartford since 2007 , currently being a senior. I've enjoyed every moment here. I have involved myself with the community, joined a soroity, become president of the dance team, proctored students and I also tutor students in math that are having a difficult time. My life here at Hartford has been extremely rewarding, I look forward to my graduation and moving on eventually to my Masters then P.H.D. Hartford showed me that I can accomplish anything my heart desires. I think that it is important for students to feel welcomed and worthy of being anything they can be.

The biggest thing I got out of my college experience so far is enjoy every minute, every activity, every meal eaten with friends, just enjoy it all. You never know if you're going to get it again, so really live for those moments. I believe it was very valuable to attend my fabulous school because its the start to my great success. I know I'm going to make it big and I truly believe that without a college degree and more importantly the whole college experience I won't be able to do that. In my eyes college is evrything and its up to you to make it that.

I learned who I was at college because of the diversity. I got a B.A. in English Lit, but I have to admit I learned a lot more about how to live than academics. I took on many leadership roles at the school and I gained so much hands on experience. I wish more people would get invovled and have the same attitude leaving school that I did. I am confident. I am proud of who I am, and I am SO excited about being able to take the next steps in my education. I just got accepted into Fashion school and I'm so excited. I would have never had the drive to continue education in such a competitive field if I wasn't given the opportunity to explore my talents at Hartford.

In going to the University of Hartford I feel I gained a lot. I learned proper time management and the consequences of waiting until the last minute to do work. I aslo gained a sense of maturity and responsibility. Living on your own at college is an entirely different experience that causes you to think by yourself and make proper decisions for example how long to stay out when you have class in the morning, when to do your laundry, and what to eat, and how to exercise to order to keep yourself in proper shape if your not playing any sports. I learned how to cope with new people from across the world and accept their different perspectives. Also in working i learned to fully balance responsibilities. All of these experiences were valuable in developing my character and maturity into a man.

What I have gotten out of college is the thought that you are on your own and nobody is there to make sure you wake up on time not even yoour roommate. It has been valuable because it has helped grow me and make me more of an adult and women because I am more responsible.

Ever since my freshman year of high school, I've always envisioned myself attending college. It just always seemed like the right path for me to take after graduation. When the decision finally came around, I chose to begin my undergraduate studies at Central Texas College. For me, attending college was very beneficial to many aspects of my life. My college experience has allowed me to meet a great deal of extraordinary people and form many new friendships. The constant studying and challenging coursework have forced me to become a more hard-working and disciplined person. Despite rising tuition costs and a struggling economy, I know that a college education will really help me in the long run. The skills and traits that I'm picking up from attending a university will definitely allow me to excel in any career that I pursue. Simply put, attending college has really opened up a window of endless possibilities for my future.

I have recieved a great amount of wisdom and knowledge from my university. Most of everything that I attend school for can be found in Hawk Hall and if it's not there, then I could always ask a professor, advisor, or R.A.

I have not started school but i do start on may 21, 2010.

I have received an education that has helped me advance in my career. I would like to advance my education and receive a masters degree in school psychology so I can better support my family.

At present I am a graduate of Union County College and it has increased my knowledge in the Business aspect. I am a hard working student devoted to learning and continuing for a higher education. My experience at Union County College has been nothing but fantastic and a school I am proud to represent for the outstanding things I have learned throughout my two years there. I am looking forward to increasing my knowledge about Business at a four year institution and I am looking to graduate in two years with a Bachelors Degree in Business studies.

What I've gotten from my college experience is probably not that relevant to college, itself. I found love. The end of my first year in college, I found someone that means more to me than I could have ever imagined. I realize it sounds lame because I'm only 20 years old but I'm not a fool. I love this boy and we've been together for more than a year now. I also gained some new friends from a dance team that I started on campus. The team was ratified in January and we were all thrilled because we're one, large family.

I have yet to attend college, but the preparation to attend college has been quite and experience. My mother and I have become closer by working together to find colleges and majors I like and don't like. I also attended an audition for dance which was one of the best things I could have done for myself. I am proud that I was able to do something with out my fellow dancers around me to support me; instead it was just me trying my best and supporting myself. I also realized that most colleges will fund you in different ways, but it is up to you to find the scholarships and grants.

In my experience with college I have learned a lot of things. I have learned the most how to work with others. There is a class here at my college that a first year student have to attend its called College Life Skills. College Lifeskill is a class that helps you in college period. They teach you study skills, note taking, and the most for me is "how to work with others." College I thought would be scary because I didnt know anybody this class is to introduce you to your peers. You have to learn classmate name, get at least two numbers from every class you take as a assignment, just so your teacher knows you know them. They teach you many things about the college you are attending and places to go for certain help. Oh boy did that help me. My experience with college has taught me that I dont have to be scared of new surroundings for there are people around me that are feeling the same way, connect with them and other members and staff at your college.The mor people you get to know the more relaxed you will be.

I have gotten so much out of my University so far. From metting professors who go out of there way to make sure you understand the curriculam to helping with registration and actually caring about what is next inn your path and how to get there. I have made freinds htat will loast a life time. The most important is knwoing I am at the right school for for the path of my caeer with sholders to lean on when i need assitance, from freinds teachers and even the Ladies and Gentlemen helping in offices all around the campus.

Believe that you can do it, and it will happen. Please do not worry that you may not get into the college of your choice because you will. You are a very good student that doesn't take an education for granted. A student that loves learning and networking with others. You are open to so many different ideas and you love meeting people from various social and racial backgrounds. Everything will come full circle for you and for the future. Dreams, goals and the way you would like to live will all come true. Jobs at school will happen and you will join in on many organizations and clubs. Relax and enjoy because you are a smart girl and everything will work out with the help of God and family.

As I look back on my experience transitioning from high school to college, I can think of some advice that would have helped make the process easier at the time. One important thing to remember is to keep an open mind. If you have a rough couple of days in the beginning, don?t automatically assume that college is not going to get any better. It just takes some getting used to. Also, keep in mind that everyone is in the same position as you. So reach out, the people around you all want to meet others and make friends just as much as you do. For me, it was important to get to know the people in my classes because they helped me when I had questions and they eventually turned into the best friends I have made at college. If I could go back, I would tell myself to keep in touch with everyone at home because talking with old friends who really know you can help you when things get tough. Making and keeping connections is one of the most important things to have success at college, whether it is with new friends, old friends or teachers.

I would not goof off in my senior year and make it so hard for myself...I should have studied more and kept up my grades which would have been a plus because some of the grades would have counted towards credits in college.

I would have try harder to get a better GPA because it really does matter. Also i wold have started looking for scholarships and money opporutnities way sooner then i did.

I would advise my soon-to-be graduating self to first of all, believe in himself and his dreams; and to not be intimidated by people who are successful. I would want him to understand that in order to be successful, there are a great number of failures one has to experience. When making a choice for college to consider what he wants above the needs of those of friends and family. I would also encourage him to visit the college or university he chooses and make important contacts before school starts. I would also encourage him to study harder than he ever has before and try to find meaning in the subjects that bore him, because those boring subjects just might make sense someday. Finally, I would advise him to be himself and enjoy the good times and endure the bad ones, because each moment has a lesson that will throughly enrich his life.
