Amy Farrah Fowler In The Murder Scene Age: 33 Gender: Female Posts: 21121 | September will be the start of my second year at St Clair. I attended for Pre-Health, because I really had no idea what I wanted to do. So that opened opportunities. Now I know I want to go into physiotherapy assistance, but the program for that was cancelled at St Clair, and the closest one is three hours away. So since I can't afford to go away just yet, my plan was to take a year off to work. Then I was convinced that I probably won't go back to school, because most people never do. So I'm taking Office Administration in September, just so I stay in school. What I like about it: You're not being babysat like in highschool. It's your own responsibility to get your work done and your teachers aren't hovering over you like in highschool. If you miss a meal, that's okay because you can eat in class. If you need to talk to someone on a cell phone (say, to get a ride), you don't have to hide it. Also, you don't waste time. The teacher tells you what you need to learn, you finish, and you can go. Unlike in highschool, where you had to sit there the whole period, even if all the work was done. What I dislike about it: It's too far. My highschool is only a few blocks or so from my house, walking distance. My college is two bus rides away. |
Heart Attack. Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2274 | I'm going to Ohio State in September, majoring in psychology. I'm kinda nervous because its so huge there, but at the same time I'm excited because I wanted to go to big school to meet lots of people. I just hope I don't get lost lol. It should be a good change from high school though, I'm looking forward to it. |
Go fuck yourself Devil's Got Your Number Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 37823 | My parents are trying to get me to go to school in California (even though I really want to go to Michigan) The two schools that interest me the most though in California right now is Humboldt State and Sonoma State. Does anyone have any information on these schools or know anyone who goes there and likes it? There's some things I really like and dislike about both. |
it's all happening Salute You in Your Grave Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 2038 | idk. my bff jill?:I'm applying Warren Wilson! whee~ currently wrestling with common app. what a BITCH to deal with. |
heartstrings. Demolition Lover Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 18470 | My Dear Delirious:What major are you thinking of? I could probably give you more information about the schools if I knew what you were thinking of majoring in. Coming up on my first month in university. It's been a rollercoaster of emotions but so far it's been fun. (: Just last night the girls on my floor and I went out for drinks and a game night. I really enjoy my classes, as well. It's an amazing experience. |
Go fuck yourself Devil's Got Your Number Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 37823 | heartstrings.:I'm either gonna major in art, education or computer science. What school do you go to? |
heartstrings. Demolition Lover Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 18470 | My Dear Delirious:Strictly speaking about the quality of education you'll get, Sonoma State has the better reputation. Humboldt's art and education programs are really popular though. In addition the costs for attending Humboldt since you'll be an out-of-state applicant will be slightly higher. Not be much but they will be higher. What do you like and not like about each university? If I know what you know then I might be able to shed a bit more light on the subject because I really don't know if the information I'm giving right now is helpful at all. I currently go to California State University, Long Beach. (: |
idk. my bff jill? Demolition Lover Age: 29 Gender: Female Posts: 18372 | ahh, i change my mind so much! now i'm thinking about University of North Carolina at Asheville, majoring in Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies and minoring in Psychology. |
Go fuck yourself Devil's Got Your Number Age: 30 Gender: Female Posts: 37823 | heartstrings.:I live in California, so they better not charge me out of state! I liked the art program of Humboldt and how it was in a little town many people descriped as being like from the Mid-West. I don't like the pot reputation or that it's a 5-hour drive to San Francisco. I like Sonoma in that it has such a good academic reputation, not as much pot, it's closer to San Francisco etc. I don't like the fact that alot of people say Sonoma doesn't have much life to it. I'm gonna apply to both, I was just wondering if you had any tips? How do you like Long Beach? |
Richey Edwards. Demolition Lover Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 16507 | well, im graduating early, so im going to college in january Im planning to attend community college for two years, then transfer to another school for two years Im not quite sure what i wanna major in yet |
heartstrings. Demolition Lover Age: 31 Gender: Female Posts: 18470 | My Dear Delirious:Well don't I feel like the smart one. For some reason I thought you didn't live in California. Ignore my ignorance, haha. Weighing the pros and cons is always the best way to go when it comes to college choices. That's what I had to do, for example, because I had to choose between Fullerton and Long Beach. It really depends on what you'd want more in a school: does it bother you that Sonoma doesn't have much life to it if the academic reputation is strong? Does the pot reputation of Humboldt bother you so much that you'd pass up the possibility of entering into their art program? Basically I can't tell you where to go and all I can give is my input. And, despite the pot reputation, Humboldt is still a relatively good school. One of my acquaintances in high school goes there and she likes it very much. If I had any connections in Sonoma I would get those for you as well but unfortunately no one I know is currently attending so sorry I couldn't be of more help to you there. Long Beach is an amazing school and so far I've really enjoyed it. I live on campus and it's much more fun than I would have expected. My RA has already compiled a few fun activities to get the girls on my floor to bond and the food in the dining halls is two thumbs way up, haha. And, for what it's worth, the art program is fairly good here as well. My roommate is majoring in art. (: |

Easy Tiger! Killjoy Age: 32 Gender: Female Posts: 46 | Just started my BSc Music Technology Course today, and I love it! There's only 3 girls on the course out of 175 people, but its amazing. Although, I'm sick of someone setting off the fire alarm at 4am every day since we got here in our halls. Not fun! |
