Im looking forward to this because it will be a point in my life where I'm on my own pretty much. I'm looking forward to football games because I love the environment they carry and I like the sport a lot. Lastly, I'm excited to meet new people because the people I meet in college can take me to many different places or even be lifelong friends.

I want to learn the life my mom learned in college and enjoy all of the experiences she said she had. I also want to go to a school where football is a big part of the culture and on Saturdays I always have something to look forward to. Most important I am looking forward to learning how to balance school and fun. (86)

I know there are so many ways to pay for college like fafsa,scholarships, and grants but I’m scared that moving out will be pricey. I hope that I’m able to work on campus to help pay for living expenses but thinking about that stresses me out. My dad always told me to focus on my studies because he had a job in college and it was hard for him. So I hope I do what is best for me and my future.(98 words)

I do realize it might be more expensive, but I really want to be independent and learn how to do things on my own. I believe it will be difficult, but definitely worth it and doable. By living on my own I will be able to learn new things and meet new people. I want to be able to meet new people and explore new places, all while expanding my knowledge and education.  (87 words)

I don't want to be this lost and confused girl, I want to be successful in my academics and not worry about school financially. I get worried that I won't know where to go or what to do. I feel like I would lose myself trying to balance school, money and personal life. I pray to God that I can help my family one day and not lose the connection we have because of distance.

I like living near a big city that has lots of things to do and don’t want to be stranded in the middle of nowhere. I wouldn’t mind going out of state but I would have to stay on the west coast because I want to be close enough to home so that  it's not a long flight and so I can make it in one day back to my house.

When I go to college, I would like to venture out and do things like attend events and push myself to take on roles that I would have otherwise not taken now. This is important to me because it would help me meet new people and give me the experience I want. (75)

I might not know a single person at the college I'm at, and I'll have to make new friends all over again. I find myself to be a social person, and I think I would struggle with being alone in college. I've never had a problem talking to new people, but doing so in a new place with completely new people may prove to be a bigger challenge than I think it would be. (97)

The hope is to go to a major D1 school and being able to experience things like football games and other sorts of things. I hope to play basketball or volleyball in college as well. Another things I am exitied for is the chance to meet new people, take classes I want to take, study in a major of my choice, and experience and explore where I will end up.

I wanna feel like I have everything in control, even when it's stressful, because I like learning from what makes me become a better me. I also look forward to living by myself. I know when the moment comes, I'll feel nervous or scared, but I want to do stuff by myself and create memories with new people. But what I expect from college is something coming out of it.

I want to stay in state for many reasons. I want to be close to family so if they need anything I am there to help them. I also just love California and love being near the beach, and I just love the weather here. Out of state is just way too expensive for tuition, and just to move all my stuff out there is just way to much for me. (89)

I think that for your first week or two, you don't know where you are. Another thing that scares me about college is the workload. If I fall behind in high school, I'll need to change a lot to not fall behind in college. Another thing that scares me is living in a dorm room. I think that it really depends on your roommates.

I want to meet people who either have the same major as me or anyone who has a different major to see the difference in how college life is to us. I also look forward into being more independent. I know that in college there aren't that many people to help guide you so I want to learn how I will manage college life and studies by myself and still be successful. (85 words)

I'm hoping whatever college I end up going to has good clubs and campus activities that I can participate in. The clubs I'm looking to join consist of sewing, music, and / or jewelry. I know that my friend is really into sewing, so if I can find a club we could both join, that would be great. I love music, so if I could find a music club to join, I think I would fit in well and be able to contribute a lot to the club. I love making jewelry and wearing it, so if I could find a jewelry-making club, it would be really cool. (118)

I know you can attend a college undeclared but I am scared that when the time comes, I will be lost and/or unhappy with what major I am in.

At this time I still don't know what career I want to pursue and that's why I am scared that I will go somewhere where I might not like, or enjoy.

This goes for not knowing what to major in, not knowing who to ask for help or not knowing where to go. I know i'm going to walk into college super confused and super scared even after I've visited the college. I'm also scared i'm going to waste mine or my mom's money on classes and the school in general.

Failing is a big part of life but a lot of the time it’s the worst part of life. I want to just so badly prove to myself I was able to do something on my own and prove to others that when I’m done with college that I achieved what I wanted to achieve.

I don’t want to take my parents money and I don’t want to take out a big loan for school. I would maybe do 2 years at moorpark and the transfer to a 4 year college because that is what my brother did and he saved a lot of money. I don’t want to stress about money in college because the I will have to get a job and then have to focus less on school and more on my job. (99)

I want to explore a new state or city and have a feel of new people around the country. I know it would be expensive to move out of state but also I feel as if it would be more expensive in the state especially in California to live and attend a college. Also, the major I want to study is more common outside of California and there are better schools outside of this state.

But I am open to in-state as well. I want to go out of state to an East Coast, southern, or Northeast school. I’ve never been on that side of the country before, so I think it would be cool to explore and get the experience of living there. The benefits of staying in California though is the weather and close to family.

California can be a big and small place, with universities having many different majors. California also has some of the best universities in the country. I don't see a reason for me to go out of state when I have all I need here. Going out of state would be too expensive for me; I'd rather stay here and have my Cal grant and other financial aid services exclusive to California. But besides cost, I want to stay relatively close. And going out of state would put me far away in a new state where I know nobody. So when I put all these different factors combined, I would rather stay in-state for college. (135)

I am scared of leaving all my friends to travel into a place where I know nobody. I am excited to meet these new people however it is still scary to leave behind the place I've lived in for 16 years.

Going to a new school somewhere else can be really difficult, and I know that because I've experienced it before. Although I managed to make new friends eventually, it took a while and was nerve racking meeting new people. I'm also scared about how I'm going to pay for college.

I hear a lot of people talking about hoping they get into their dream college, or wanting to go study in this country or this place, and I just don’t get it. How do you decide on a specific place to study in? How is that place so different from where you are now, and why that place out of everything? What’s so great about that college that you dream of attending there? I think questions like this would be nice to know an answer to, especially if I’m going to have to start applying to colleges soon after the end of this year.

Also, I wouldn't want to be really far so I can come and see my family on the weekends. I think that I would also want to live in California because I like the weather here, and I think it would take a lot of time to get used to a whole other state's weather. I would also like to live in the state because you get to know more about your state, and you get to explore new places you've never been to before.

Then I say independent. I mean being more reliable in dealing with living on my own and making sure I am making good enough money to stay on top of taxes. Since I will not be living close to home I won't have my mom and dad to be right there to help me. I will have to take care of bills, healthy food, and gas while going to school and having a job.

It may be more expensive but I want to learn how to live on my own and learn the difficulty of being away from my family for long periods of time.

I am okay with staying in California or close to my home because It will be cheaper and easier. I am also okay with going out of state because I want to be traveling anyways and I like going to places I've never been. Going out of state also just gives me an even bigger opportunity to be independent and on my own. (75)

How does financial aid work. If you have lots of scholarships that give you more money then your tuition do you get that money back? Is FAFSA and financial aid the same thing? What do I need to know before applying to any schools? When should I start to apply for scholarships? These are all questions I want to hopefully know the answer to. (87)

A question I have about the admissions process is how long should you spend on each application because you're gonna be doing many different apps for colleges. I also still wanna know how you can get more financial aid. How do you even apply for it or even receive the money for college? Lastly, I would like to know how many applications you should submit to schools.

How can I make my essay more persuasive and speak to the admissions officer on a more personal level to elevate my chances of being accepted? Lastly, what can I do to recive financial aid that doesn't involve owing debt?

College has a lot of opportunities to be a leader and I hope I can take advantage of that. It also has a busier schedule for students and managing their week and time is harder. Right now in high school I don't have good time management and that is very crucial because you need to show how well you can manage time so I want to improve on that. (80 words)

The only problem for me is that I don't know what to major in and like I said before I don't want to waste money or time.

Personally, I am a very social person and love talking to people. If I believe I am going to like the person, or think we will get along, I have no fear in going up and talking to them. I am also excited to live on my own just to see what it would feel like and how I'd live with no help. I mean, maybe with some roommates we will all see how we can live together, but personally, I'd like to see how I do.

I would be scared to venture out, but I think it'll end up fine in the end if I do decide to go out of state. The reason I say that when I decide is because I don't fully know if I want to go in-state or out of state. But I do believe there is a big chance for me to be going out of state.

This has been my fear for a little while now, but how would I know I would be able to graduate if the classes are too hard? Overall, I am pretty scared of college, especially because of that fact. I am sure I will do well in college, though. Something I can do to help my nerves is talk to someone in college and listen to their advice.

I am excited to use all the life lessons I've learned so far and apply them into the real world I am also excited to have my own place to live.

Personally I want to experience studying in a new country. That has been my dream for a while now and I am planning on making it come true in college. Before studying abroad I am looking into living on the east coast and moving out of the country for a bit. I am mostly looking for out of state/country schools but if I do stay in state I would go to a school in San Diego.

Honestly moving out is really scary because I won't be living in my family home anymore but it is also very exciting because I like to be independent. The thing that terrifies me the most about moving out though is other people. People are crazy and I want to make sure that wherever I'm moving to that it's going to be really safe.
