i loved it. best time of my life (so far!). try getting involved in some clubs or activities. maybe play some IM sports. if you're living on a freshman floor, make an effort to meet people. its really the people you meet that make college worthwhile.

You can probably find what you're looking for by searching the National Association of College and University Business Officers (NACUBO), the professional association for college business people. You can also look at the job announcements there.\n\nThe link is http://www.nacubo.org\n\nHere is one news item I pulled up from the page, but if you search, you'll find more:\n\nhttp://www.nacubo.org/x8346.xml?s=x40\n\nCarolyn Lawrence\nwww.AdmissionsAdvice.com

It's easier to teach business concepts to people who have had previous experience in industry.  There's quite a bit of class participation and group work.  Those who have had work experience will excel in these areas while those who have just been students might not do as well.

Study hard, make good grades.  Volunteering in your community is a HUGE advantage.  Colleges are looking for outstanding people, not just good students.

Learning exchange or other local adult learning centers in your area. these places offer all kinds of different classes, contact them and tell them your idea for a class and if they think people will attend then they will let you put on the class and give you a cut of the profit, depending on how many people attend.

They should help place you in classes tht will help prepare you for your furture (advance placement and college prep).  Addtionally they can be a mentor, and even someone you can turn to in a time of need.

What are the benefits and the programs of that college, is it a trade school ?

It really depends upon the individual institution- some see it as simply a way to hit you up for money (while you're still paying off student loans), but it really is a good way to network when you're jobhunting, and if you've relocated, see if your school has a local alumni association chapter- it'll help you stay in touch with old connections, and make new ones-both professionally and socially-good luck!

It was a little scary at first, but I got into the swing of things pretty quickly. Your campus will probably have plenty of organizations to join, and that's a good way to meet people. You'll meet upperclassmen who can show you the ropes, and you'll meet other freshmen who'll probably be just as confused as you are. If you don't know something, don't be afraid to ask. Get to know your professors. It's a very fun and exciting time in your life. Enjoy it.

To run an Internet cafe business you are best to set up near a college campus as students will utilize this all of the time.  Luckily today you can get computers relatively cheap.  You do need to have a vast array of foods as students love sandwiches pasta and anything they can take with them when they leave.  You could charge by the hour for them to sit at a computer or you can require that they order food in order to sit at a computer.  However you would probably do better to charge by the hour because some students might only want something to drink.  You will need to stay open long hours as some students will want to hang out there.  You want to do what ever you can to make it college kid friendly.  Use decor that is full of eye popping colors and you may want to put posters of music stars in there as well.  Make it a cool looking place and the kids will come.  If you need more help or have anymore questions email me.

I'm not sure I agree with the first answer.  \n\nCommunity colleges are places where you get two years worth of classes.  For whatever reason (school mission, funding, etc.), they don't issue 4-year degrees.\n\nTherefore, some people don't see them as a 'real' college.'  But their hours transfer to four year colleges, the classes give you a good start if it's your first time doing work at a college level.\n\nThe BIG upside for students is that they're usually much cheaper than other public 4-year colleges and definitely cheaper than private schools.    \n\nI have plenty of friends who got an Ivy League education that STILL went to community colleges in the summer so they could finish their degree's sooner.

I'm glad that I went to community college.  The classes are smaller, and the professors usually know your name.  It's a good adjustment to college, and then after two years you will be ready to transfer to a big college, and enjoy the college life.  Good Luck on your decision....if you need more advice on this topic, just email me.

You added two items after your question, but one thing to remember is that tuition, room & board, etc. are NOT just expensive cover charges to an ongoing party interrupted by an occasional class. Yes, it may be a good thing to have fun and unwind once in awhile, but you're also young enough (I'm assuming) to get through the physical rigors of college and still come out with your health relatively intact.\n\nGoing to college takes a real time and effort commitment. Your primary reason for being there should be to get that degree, not to socialize, so go to class and do your homework first. But socializing is also important because you'll need to "network" in order to help secure that job so you can pay those loans, and so you can have someone to lean on or support through trying courses.\n\nFind a major that you like, but find a way you can use it out in the real world, too. Money doesn't buy happiness, but it's great for whittling down the number of concerns you'll have.\n\nIf you have a class with a lot of terminology, make notecards/flashcards for yourself - put the term on one side and the definition or concept on the other side, and quiz yourself.
