Anyone here going to college this upcoming fall? I got an early acceptance at Loyalist College for Animation/Graphic Design, which I'm pretty excited about.
For those who are already in university or college, or have attended one of the two, did you enjoy your experience? |

I hope to jump to grad school straight after getting my BBA, so I plan on being in college for a while.
Did the community college thing, and while the campus life was severely lacking, I'm also not in debt, which is pretty awesome.

you save money but you have to transfer your credits to a major university to get anything above an associates degree(2 year degree)

I'm not too far from Loyalist, I'm at Queen's University right now.

I was mostly bummed that I had to take a bunch of courses that are useless to me in order to get my degree. I'm having a lot more fun with my classes this semester, mostly because I enjoy my German class and don't have to do much at all in my Computer class.

| Not really. A University is only a business. They pretend like they "care" about you and your education, but when it comes down to it, they only care about getting your money. |

As for the answer, I really don't enjoy the majority of school... but I have met a few people that I'm grateful for... $160,000 is a lot of money to be in debt for something that's nearly required to succeed in our society.

| | Registered User | | Join Date: Aug 2007 Location: Big Island | | After one undergraduate degree and two graduate degrees, I decided to go for my PhD. Three years into my PhD, funds drying up and family emergencies caused me to take a break (possibly permanent) from the PhD program. Many of my experiences were good. It is a great deal of work though and, it can be stressful. I've completed about 320 semester hours of undergraduate and graduate coursework so far. I might take next fall semester off. 
Good Luck and Have Fun!
