Where does everyone go to school...

Im a senior in H.S., so right now Im going thru applying to college and everything.
Thought it would be interesting to see where everyone goes or went to school.

As for me, Im either off to Western Michigan or Grand Valley State next year...no clue what Im majoring in.

This is kinda of a loaded question...but, is college hard? Ive heard both ways, Ive heard some people say its just like H.S. as long as you stay on top your work, and Ive heard other people say its really hard and at times unbearable.

Im really looking to it, but then again I dont no.

You get out of college what you put in. Most public schools are funded by the state based on their student body size and graduation rate so pretty much anyone can get in and graduate so long as you just show up and turn in anything.

Our class president had to take 4 P.E. credits because he couldn't keep up a 2.0 GPA as a COMMUNICATIONS major!

Anyway, depending on if you or your folks are paying for school I would definitely look at private schools. They are exponentially more expensive, but a large part of college is networking and the contacts you make at private school generally tend to be far better than the everyday slugs (like me) you meet at public universities.

Why did you call yourself a slug??? You seem pretty cool and your from Michigan. :)


I already know Im not going to a private school, pretty much because Im done applying and Im accepted everywhere I want to go. As far as money goes, between scholarships, mom and dad, money I have saved up, and maybe financial aid...I should get out without having to owe anything...hopefully.
