    About this ebook

    Get prepared for college life

    Find out what you can expect from college and make your experience one of ease.

    The college guide will help you:

    Determine if college is the right fit for you so that you feel optimistic about your choice.
    Discover how to choose your college and major, so you do not have to deal with the added stress.
    To access comprehensive resources and tools to help you every step of the way in your college journey so that you do not feel lost or discouraged.

    The college guide is written:

    In a simplistic manner that is raw and relatable so that you understand the material
    With lighthearted commentary and pop culture references so that you are engaged and do not feel overwhelmed by the information
    Accurately integrating research from credible sources so that you have up-to-date knowledge to satisfies all your concerns about starting college

    I started college at the age of fourteen, majoring in business administration and a minor in marketing after being homeschooled for all my life. I was in my awkward teen stage and did not really know what to expect from college. I did not have much of a college experience, as I did my studies online while traveling with my family, but I still had to deal with the challenges of college life. I managed to graduate in 2014 at the age of 18 with my bachelor’s degree, toward obtaining my master’s degree from Full Sail University. I am currently working on my dissertation as a Ph.D. candidate and decided to share all that I learned and wished that I knew before starting college. I put together this guide to help you make the most of your college education/experience and alleviate your apprehensions.

    Who is this guide for?

    High School Seniors
    Graduating high school students
    College Freshmen
    New college enrollees
    Parents of future college students
    First-generation college students
    Anyone who plans to go to college

    How will this college guide help me?

    The college guide was written with the reader in mind who is anxious about student loan debt, and it provides ample information so that you are aware of how to manage loans and graduate with as little debt as possible.
    You will gain insight on how to leverage your college education and skills so that you have a competitive advantage when applying for jobs.
    It offers valuable resources to help you maintain your mental health while transitioning into college life so that you can have focus and enjoy every moment.

    Are you ready to get the proper guidance that will answer all your questions about college?

      Everything to know about college

      Should I go to college?

      Going to college is a significant investment in both time and money. So, when determining if you should go, you need to have a strong ‘why’ that will help you stay consistent even when motivation is gone. There are plenty of benefits of going to college, whether it be for personal fulfillment, a love of learning, or to enhance your career. There are also reasons to not go to college, such as going to college just because all your peers are doing it, or your parents told you to, etc.

      Don’t get me wrong, it’s essential to listen to your parents, but everyone’s parents tell them to go to college because that’s all they know and it’s the best advice they can offer. Just know that it’s going to be you investing FOUR years of your life reading, writing, and taking tests. I tell you this not to discourage you but only to give you the brutal truth of what you’re getting into. Therefore, be sure you’re fully on board; that way, you can enjoy it.

      Although college or university has a lot of requirements, it can be enjoyable. Imagine going through four difficult years of challenges to be able to say, I DID IT. I finally did it….I got a piece of paper with my name on it. I’m kidding (partially). Attaining your bachelor's degree is a significant accomplishment and can present some great opportunities for you. In a way, a college degree is a requirement to advance your career, being that we live in a time where having a high school diploma is the bare minimum.

      College teaches you a great lesson that every millennial should know but sadly have yet to grasp. That lesson is Google is your best friend. College is excellent at helping you learn to research and figure out the answer. Many people get stuck when it comes to working in a business or learning new tasks in their work environment, while college is the practice field for helping you understand how to figure it out. All in all, there is no complete handbook
