What College do you want to go to? Or what College did you go to? Or in?

[Complexity 181]

I'm planning on going to Duke University or Appalachian State.

[Ashen Pathfinder 16,161]

I went to Concord University in southern West Virginia; graduating after four years. My god, what a beautiful campus that. It's still a place I miss dearly...

[long gone 8,929]

I currently go to New England Institute of Technology. Campus is just as beautiful on the inside as the New England scenery outside.

[iceestarz 5,764]

I'm looking into going to West Texas A&M. Only one more year of high school for me, kinda scary 

[Invincible 2,091]

Doubt you'll know the name. I study for my Computer Science bachelor's in HIT (that's the Holon Institute of Technology), in Israel. It's a pretty small college, the entire campus has like 10 buildings or so. But it's lush, with green fields and trees, lots of which you can just sit under as you read a book or something

[Bluehooves 11]

Well I am thinking on going to Trinity collage which is Dublin's most prestigious universities. I suppose the reason is simply because it is Ireland's oldest (1592)  and high ranking universities, also it's just down the road so that's a plus.

Possibly U.C Davis in california. Probably because I heard that it's for people who can't deal with too much stress like me.

[The Dark Lord 332]

I go to University of Alabama. Roll Tide!!!

[~Master~ Button Mash 2,307]

I currently don't go to any school, will likely be going to community college in the fall. McHenry County College in Woodstock, IL. They teach trade classes and I'm going to learn welding. Not my first choice but it's just the way life circumstances went.

 

It's kind of a dark story. I used to go to Lewis University in Romeoville, IL, and was studying to become a pilot. But my family got hit by a pretty bad financial problem, and I had to drop out completely. In fact it went from that, to barely being able to afford community college. But that's life. Shit happens, then you die.

 

My tip to all high school age members. Yes, sports, extracurriculars, and clubs matter. Even if you think they don't, they do. Find a few to join and do it. Even if there is nothing you like, learn to like it. It matters these days. I thought I could ride through on grades, but I was wrong. In hindsight a few clubs or ECs might've been enough to get me a few more scholarships that would have allowed me to stay in school.

Hrmm should I really tell the world about my whereabouts :comeatus:?.... I don't see why not .

 

I'm a longhorn at the University of Texas at Austin, and I am not in a fraternity lol. Hook 'em \m/!

I've already graduated college! Is it too late for me to answer this?

Well I'll just tell ya my alma mater: Southwestern Oklahoma State University (SWOSU). It's a regional university. You probably hacen't heard of it unless you live in the area, know someone who went there, or if you went there yourself lol

"Headin' to beantown! Whoa oh, whoa oh! Goin' over to beantown! Oh-oh ah"

I was planning M.I.T, then Harvard

Harver- *clears throat* Oh wow, ahem! Sorry, the smart side of me kicked in. I would like to attend ATM University at College Station. Why? Because I come from a long line of Aggies and want to keep that tradition going.

A Bostonian! High-hoof! Harvard!

[Admiral Regulus 2,769]

I'm a mechanical engineering student at UCF, University of Central Florida. It's a big school; I shouldn't be the only one going there on these forums.

[A Black Circle 1,586]

What college do you plan to go to and why?

 

I plan to go to Stanford to get a degree in Neuroscience and Neurobiology.

 

How about you?

I'm in college, so I'm, like, the smurtest person in this thread. *pushes up glasses and sniffs indignantly*

 

Nah, but for reals. I'm studying Cyber Intelligence and Security at Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. It's a fun place; fairly easy to get into as well. If anyone is thinking aeronautical engineering, this is THE school for that field of study.

[A Black Circle 1,586]

Stanford is THE school for neuroscience/psychology.

 

I'm going there to make SAO IRL.

[ReverieRiver 526]

Right now, I'm just attending my local 2-year college. I'll be getting my Associate's in Computer Technology soon.

 

I'm hoping to transfer to a 4-year college and get a Bachelor's. I've been eying one called the College of St. Scholastica. It offers courses online, and it's affordable. Also, their Computer Science program looks ideal to me - I'll be getting a Bachelor's in that, with a concentration in Web Design.

I think we're actually not that far off from making virtual reality an actual reality, so...

 

It's possible.

[Banul 3,831]

At a community college right now. Hoping to transfer to CSU: Long Beach and major in illustration. 

[Gernia 691]

I'm attending Robert Morris University, which is a private university, but more affordable than many other private schools. I'm trying get an Accounting degree, and this place is one of the best in the local area. I'm also trying to get an internship in the local area.

SERIOUSLY GUYS WE NEED TO DO IT

Currently going to a college in WA, looking to transfer to Washington U for muh degree.

[Thuja 3,659]

I was attending community college for a while but right now I'm taking a bit of a needed break from it to de-stress.  I do plan to go back and get my associates in science and then move onto a four year university so I could go into neuro-engineering and genetics.  I want to be able to regenerate nerves so people could properly function, I was inspired by the idea after a cousin of mine was in an accident and is losing function in his arm due to extensive nerve damage.  I also want to find a way to recreate limbs and attach them to people that have lost them, kinda like the implants that space marines have from 40K.

[Wingnut 6,992]

Hi !  We already have a thread that discusses college plans, where you're going, or where you went so I took the liberty of merging your thread with the established one.  When starting a new topic, please take a moment to see if the subject already exists, thanks!   

[A Black Circle 1,586]

Good Job, Wingnut

Anyway,

 

Stanford University

Neuroscience and Computer Science

[Jeric 46,851]

BBA (Penn State transferred to UCF)

BSc CS (Penn State)

 

Independently, both of these degrees are in competitive fields. Together they are more marketable. The key is post education to get and keep up with specific certifications. My golden ticket was always two certifications that can be prized by any employer. The first is CAPM leading to PMP certification (Project Management) and the second is Six Sigma. There are many many others that I have to keep up with, but those two were the most challenging and opened doors that may have been previously closed to me.

 

These days, especicially for those of you in high school, you should plan for a dual degree if at all possible. I am personally considering going back (again). You can never stop and breathe.
