Choosing a college

Every day we must make decisions that affect our lives. Choosing a college is one of the most important decisions in life, exceeded only by the choice of a wife or a husband. Financially speaking, college can easily be the second largest expenditure in life, surpassed only by the cost of a house. Some four year colleges cost far more than the average expense of a house in some states. College is more than a preparation for a career. Often, the person who graduates becomes a different person from what he or she was as an entering first year student. Furthermore, the imprint of a particular college or university can remain for life.

Even the track coaches showed interest. They kept in contact with me at least once a week trying to persuade me to attend their university. Not only did I receive acceptance letters, but I also received letters stating that they were rewarding me with academic scholarships. Not only was I worried about getting into college, but I was also worried about getting money to pay for college. However, they were now trying to sell themselves to me. Another characteristic I was looking for in a college, was that I was receiving a good education for a reasonable price. It has caused me to grow as an individual and learn to become more independent. The process helped me to believe in myself and in my abilities.

Choosing a college was the biggest decision I made in my life so far. I went through the whole process by myself receiving assistance only when needed. Choosing a college has impacted my life immensely. What helped make the process much easier was narrowing my search down to the colleges that possessed qualities for which I was looking. There was so much going on in my life that I felt like I had no time to think about my future. My decision has,and will affect my life forever. Being a competitive track athlete, working a job, and busy with school, I really did not even give thought to where I wanted to attend college.
