What college are you going to and why?
« on: August 21, 2011, 10:20:56 am »
I'm attending Chico State because its campus reminds me most of my high school campus.  I loved high school and I wanted to go to a college that felt familiar.  I might be transfering after my freshman year though to attend a school in Georgia so I can be with my husband.

I already went to college.  I went to the University of Phoenix.  They have a campus in Springfield Missouri, but I did mine online. I graduated about a year ago I got my Assocaites Degree in Accounting. It was different doing it online. I think it was more difficult myself.

Im currently at The University of Texas at Austin...why'd I go here? Well, I'm majoring in Civil Engineering, and this university has one of the best programs for Civil Engineering in the country.

I'm going to start Cuyahoga Community College in Ohio next Monday. 

Why?

1.  It's $91 per credit hour, and I get full financial aid (not having found a job and all), so the aid gave me $2500, and the tuition is about $1550 (for 5 classes), so I have nearly $1000 that I'm going to use to pay for books (~$500), and a light laptop for class.

2.  They have a vet tech program that sounds interesting, or I might do sports and exercise studies. (I'm doing general classes right now).  If I decide not to do those, the gen eds will be covered if I switch to a 4 year to get a BS in Biology.

3.  The school is ~5 miles away from my apt, vs 25 miles away for the others in Cleveland.
