does college really live up to the hype? I know its really gonna vary depending upon how big of a school you go to and what school, (in my case i plan on going to the UofU) is the partying and the bitches as good as I'm hoping it will be? what were your guys thoughts going into college? (regarding girls, partying, difficulty of classes) Ive still got a year left of high school but I'm itching to get out of my house
 
bro. people who go to college just for girls and partying are super rad. it's especially chill if you find a way to make it the best 9 years of your life
 
Take a year out, make some cashmoney, think it over. If it still appeals to you, then go for it. If not, then you have cash and work experience to do something else.

Yes, it probably will live up to the hype. But it's really not worth going just for that.
 
This first.

Then, class difficulty depends on your degree; some might be easier than high school, most more difficult. if you're outgoing and know anyone, there will be parties, how hard you party depends on your enthusiasm haha. there are girls in all places; if you end up at a place with really drunk girls there will be drunk bitches. there is always "that one girl," or several of them, basically it depends on who you are if you're lucky or unlucky to be associated with them--watch this differentiation, usually those girls aren't all that highly thought of in the grand scheme of things, but it's obviously case by case.

don't waste your time and money if you aren't motivated by your studies. I know plenty of people who graduated and who didn't graduate; for the most part, 1-2 years after dropping out or graduating doesn't really correlate with "having a job" (related to their degree). make it count though, it's a shitload of money; but don't forget to get all you can out of it and have an awesome social life at the same time.

college of not you'll (hopefully) have fun and learn something.
 
It can... Depends on what you want to do during college.

If you only want to get out of your house and do your own thing though, and you don't know what you're interested in studying, it could be a complete waste of time. You have to work your ass off to make the education part of it worth it, and if you don't you might end up regretting it... But then you get to go for 6 years, like me!

Thats not to say that I completely failed two years of university, but I didn't do as well as I could have (B/C average, cruised through with absolute minimal effort), and now I'm taking some time off and working, and if all goes well I'll be going back to school in the fall to start again and take something I'm actually interested in. It can also be really depressing feeling like you're selling yourself short by getting a degree you don't want or half-assing everything.

There's absolutely no harm in taking a year or two off after high school and then going back to college though. You'll have money saved up, real life experience, and chances are you'll have a decent idea of what you want to do too.
 
college is what you make it. honestly, i can say that it was probably some of the best times of my life. however, if you're going just to party, save your money because it's god damn expensive.

definitely get a worthwhile education while you're there. think a lot about the major you choose. i know a lot of people who got bullshit majors that are now doing basically the same thing they could have done without the degree...except now they're paying off debt. on the other hand, i also know a lot of people, myself included, who are doing really well and wouldn't be where they are today if it weren't for those pieces of paper.
 
I am obviously not going to college just for the parties I am just very much so looking forward excited to having an exciting social life
 
it honestly depends on where you go and what you make of it. i go to a relatively small school so the class sizes are small, the profs are chill, know my name and care, which really makes a difference. it is a big investment and a big decision so don't feel the need to rush into it. i'm honestly having the time of my life. i party, drink and shred and hit the library once in awhile. find a rad group of friends and you're set. university definitely lives up to the hype.
 
Be yourself let shit happen meet cool people and yea it will be bomb. One way or another you are in for a few good years. Just like I said be you, do your thing, and things will fall into place and shit will be real cool.

(Once you get out its a different story though but cross that bridge when you get to it since you'll need either to have your shit together to get yourself a good job or you're gonna need a big pair of balls to make it in the real world on your own if you don't set yourself up with said good job.)

 
I love college. I'm an engineering major and I'm always super busy but I've never felt more alive. So much social life, so much work to do, I'm always busy. It's an incredible rush of time. I'm currently a junior and it feels like the past three years have just flown by. I wish I could be here forever.

PM me if you have any specific questions.
 
new england tech in RI, i'm obviously asking how the party scene is at tech schools compared to unis because of the age and amount of students difference. i'm assuming since there are no actual 'dorms' and we have to find apartments in town somewhere it'll be easier to party not worrying about RA's and all that
 
But at the same time it'll be harder because there won't be a large concentration of students in any one place the way there are in dorms
 
true true good point, you can board through the school and they find apartments for you so i think if we do that we'll definitely have a good chance of finding an area with a good amount of kids that party
