College

Hallo all,

Well im applying to colleges now, and well i wanted to know where you all went! or are going! tell me, maybe we will be roomies!

 

Southern Illinois University. It was a joke. Prepared me for a promising career in the food service industry. My only advice is take your time their seriously.

 

Do you know what your goals are? I went to a tech college instead of a full 4 year to save some $ and I knew I wanted to be in electronics. Have never looked back, and have had a great life working at what I love. That's the key, figure out what YOU what and go for it.

well, i want to get a broad education, but i am looking for school with good marine biology programs

 

I went to Virginia Tech and don't regret a minute of it! I got a great education, but in the Computer Engineering field. They don't have a Marine Biology program, so it probably isnt the school for you! There are a TON of choices though, so do a lot of research before sending in all your applications, and ENJOY! The 4 years goes very fast, and they will be the best 4 years of your life!

On a side note, we are all very disappointed about our loss to Miami this weekend...so please don't even consider Miami!

 

conservatory of recording arts and sciences. awesome if you're into audio recording and production

 

Widener University for myself and the hubby, he also got a Masters degree from Villanova University.

Do take your time there seriously. My parents could not send me to college, so I worked full time, and went to college at night. 12 credits per semester is what I pulled. It was difficult and I only completed a two year degree (took me 5 years). I wouldn't trade my experience tho. Learned good work ethics and perserverence. Education is the ONE thing in life you can never lose!;D Best of luck to you in your search!

 

Good thread.

I went to the University of Wisconsin at Madison. I have two degrees in communications - completely worthless after I decided film was not where I wanted to be - a lot of hurry up and wait in that field. (No regrets about that school though - fantastic place - best time of my life in a lot of ways. Go Badgers! ;D )

I agree with the others and it sounds like you know what you want to do which is great.

The only good marine biology school I know of is at the University of California - Santa Barbara. It is right on the Pacific. Getting into a U.C. school is harder than winning the lottery though. Many go to a California community college first as the U.C. system has to take so many of them each year.

Whatever you do - work hard, play hard. Just don't forget the first part.

 

im thinking of occidental, they have a pretty good marine...ya im applying to uc santa barbara so lol maybe

 

Well you can't get in if you don't apply. Good luck!
