4 common mistakes students make when choosing a College/University

Point3 is wrong. She states that a master or bachelor dosent Get you a job. Thats just naive and dumb. Its more complex than that.

I’m so confused. From what I know, college and university are basically the same thing. The only difference is that universities have graduate programs while colleges are solely undergraduate-based.

im graduating in 2 month ive got no idea and im 19 hahaha

Thank you.

Nice

I live over the ocean, and I have to visit the campus, right? Nice tip
Tip is nice

I can't choose. I'm scared of growing also another reason I can't choose is what if my grades don't match up with what I want to do. I mean I'm somehow one of the top students but what if my grades just don't match up and I already have some university. What if I go to a university that I want but I pass and graduate but no job...

I’m sorry for everyone who’s thinking this choice is the hard bit...

What needs to be discussed and re-examined about college and university, is why university education gets so much praise in our society compared to college education and its graduates, or why college isn't suitable for many employers. It is utterly ridiculous that students who graduate from university after writing essays get more praise and options than college students who do practical work, research assignments, work with other students to complete large and strenuous projects (rather than get marks for discussion (which you can learn to do while working)), college students are often instructed by people who are or have been professionals in the field. Our society needs to learn that college education is just as important as university and often times more so. Having been to both, I would certainly take college over university. Some professions may benefit greatly from university, but they should not get so much prestige.

Just go to community college. I swear boomers think people have money

Loved this interview!!!

Mistake 1. Don’t visit the campus (it’s rona some campuses are offer online tours)
Mistake 2. Don’t follow others to college(do what’s best for YOU)
Mistake 3.Think to specific or to broad(find a balance)
Mistake 4. Assume what education is needed(talk to others about the correct classes/etc. you need for what your trying to achieve)

Ok, it's so easy and cheap to visit the campus. It's not like the campus is in another state or country...

Her: mistake 1, people don’t visit campus. Me in the middle of rona: 👁👄👁

Joke's on me I can't visit the campus because of the Coronavirus outbreak ):

wish i wasn’t international then i could actually visit schools :(

I need help. I have this school I LOVE but would need to take out some loans to finish paying my room& board. BUT I have a full ride somewhere else. Both are small private Uni’s but I hate the second option. Is it worth taking out loans to go to the school I love?

Richard was so awkward in the beginning HAHAHA 😂😂

They make good points, and give very valuable information in this video (especially the bf/gf part). I also just made a video expanding on choosing universities from a student's perspective! I hope it can be helpful to you if you're still indecisive on your decision. Take your time when making this choice, it's too important to rush into.

Don’t do it 😂

It really doesn't matter where you go as long as it's an ACCREDITED post-secondary school. We all know so many students who graduate from so-called best schools and have the personality and skills of a rock. Book knowledge is so different than applying what you learned. We all know people who have come from not-the-best schools and have succeeded. I'm glad that I didn't go where my high school friends went - it allowed me to grow up, expand my network of friends, etc.

It’s not easy to go visit 4 campus’s lol

I chose the same university as my bf R I P lmao

Richard was just waiting there the whole time lol

i’m 14 and i have no idea which college to go to. literally NO IDEA. i’m scared
