Why I Want To Attend College?

In today’s society, college is a rite of passage for many young adults. It is a privilege that many people take for granted. For me, it is an opportunity to not only better myself but also the career field that I intend to enter. I believe that one does not stop learning outside of the classroom and that a college is a place where you learn more about yourself as well as other perspectives the world contains. Investing in my future, meeting new people and self growth are the ultimate benefits that are gained when one attends college. The first reason I want to attend college is the same as many high school graduates, and that is to continue my education. I believe that furthering one’s education is an investment in one’s self and can yield great returns such as being qualified to take higher paying jobs. College not only allows one to gain job opportunities but also gain more knowledge in other areas of work that may not have interested one before. It can help me learn more and introduce me to different passions that I may have. Being able to take courses that interest me as well as help me further my education is the ultimate benefit that college has to offer.

College is a wonderful boiling pot of a variety of cultures. It is a way to learn about the different perspectives and traditions that others may have. Being able to have access to a variety of people and thoughts is an amazing opportunity that I may not be able to have in the future. Meeting different people that are different that I am will help me to understand more of the world and gain new viewpoints on different opinions and help me become more impartial towards others. Connecting with others has always been important to me and with the different people that I will meet in college it can help me network myself and have connections where I may not have if I did not attend
