Why am I in college?
Why am I in college ? Good question. I'm in college because i wanted to take my education further than just high school. In some households college is a choice, but in mines it's kind of is and it's kind of not. I know for a fact i was going to go to college. The fact that i have always liked school is why i knew i was going to go. Some people might think it's weird, but that's just been me. I have always been in school most life from daycare all the way to college. My mother kept me in school and made sure I did good so I can and could continue my education. Going to college was a must for me, once I notice much more there was to learn I wanted to go. I like learning new things and learning more about things that I already know about. You could never be over education. By me coming to college I see more opportunities.
One of the reason I chose to go to college was to get a taste of the real world just a little bit.
What i mean by that is that I could see how it kind of feels to be on my own, get out and doing things on my own and not being in my parent house. I like how when you go to college you have the choice to stay on campus or not , which gives you the chance to see what it feels like to be on your own. I glad I chose to come to college because I really like how I have the chance to study something i have a passion for and also helps you prepare for the adult world to take care of responsibilities , handling money and having the higher knowledge.
Another reason I am in college is because I am studying and continuing to learn more about what
I want to do in my career choice.Coming to college helped me learn more about myself and things I would and want to learn about and accomplish in my lifetime. With me coming to college I feel like there are so many doors open for me. I came to college to learn how to communicate and not be so distant from others. Being here has changed

    Why go to college? Why would someone spend thousands of dollars to sit in yet another classroom? My uncle says “people that get a degree make over a million dollars more in a lifetime.” My dad counters that with “the world needs ditch diggers too.” I came to college to start my life, to become an independent man who finds his niche among society. I suppose some people can do that outside of school but I find college to be an optimum transition to the adult life as it teaches practical skills, instills a greater appreciation of the world, and makes one discontent with inequities in the community.…

    The reason why I'm in college is because I want a better future for myself and to show my family that I can become somebody one day. Sometimes I would say to myself like “why am I even here? This place is not the place for me “. In other words college is not for everybody because not everyone who lives with their parents who can afford for tuition for college. But for me I realize that staying alone and not doing nothing for me was the biggest mistake I ever made as young adult at the age of nineteen. Soon as I turn 20 I decided that it was time for me to do something that’s going to be right for myself which was working and going to college. The first day of me attending college was amazing meeting new people and getting to know others such as colleagues.…

    College is one of the periods of life where there is most growth, both personally and academically. Going to college is a very challenging yet rewarding experience. It brings people out of their comfort zones personally, whereas academically, people get to focus more on what they are good at. In my case, it will be a challenge to adapt to the college environment at the same time that it will be very comfortable to finally study subjects that truly interest me. This exciting challenge is the main reason I want to go to college. Most people want to go to college to get a degree and earn a lot of money, which leads them to more expensive and selective colleges. I, on the other hand, intend to focus more on the course and the subjects I will study.…
