That wonderful thing we call college.
Attending? Planning on attending? What's your major? Where at?
Right now I'm just at this crummy community college (Collin County Community College) and still living at home. (I'm only 17) I think I'm gonna get my associates degree in Graphic Design here, and then transfer to BYU and major in medicine (I'm thinking an ophthalmologist, or optometrist, but I'm not sure yet. Any suggestions welcome). Your turn. |
Currently attending Gloucester County Community college. My major is Computer Science. I'm not doing so well, but I'm hoping to change my ways and do much better.

In Germany we first get a general degree (after grade 13), then go to college and specialize. I'm in my fourth semester now, studying English and German for grammar school and college teachers (my English is still crappy but I'm planning to spend some time abroad). After about 8-10 semesters I have to pass my first major exam, then do two practical years at school (for which I'm finally paid for), pass another major exam which counts four times as much as the first one and *ZING* I'm a teacher!
Geez, I'll be 27 by then... |
I'm on an extended break from my BA (double major in Anthropology/History). I have plans to finish up that degree stateside, and hopefully go into post-grad studies at University of Wales in Aberystwyth for International Politics.

I'm at De Montfort University in Leicester in England. In my second year of BA (Hons) Media Studies and things are going okay. I live in an end terrace house that my parents bought (ooh get me) with a friend (another was supposed to move in but won't till summer)

Right now I am at the University of Michigan. Next semester I finish up my Bachelors of Science in Biopsychology/Cognitive Psychology, and in January I am going to Germany for six months to finish up my Bachelors of Arts for German. I plan to go to grad school either at UofM or Carnegie Mellon to study HCI (human computer interaction).

I'm attending animation courses in "le Cegep du vieux Montreal" (old Montreal College) Pretty damn cool if I do say so myself.
|
I'm at the local College studying Auto Mechanics.
|
i was lucky to get my GED :(
|
I'm at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill where the department of computer science has been kicking my ass for three years now. Hopefully next May I will get that BS in CS that I've been striving for this entire time. It can't come quick enough.

University of Maine, baby...!
damn chancellor's trying to mess with our schools and consolidate. :x way too much to do, not enough time in the days, and a week to pack up everything... :dead: |
Question: What does a semester at an American (Canada or USA) university cost?

EDIT: The numbers given out by UNC-Chapel Hill, where I attend, show that for the 2003-2004 academic year, the total cost for a NC resident is $13,088 and for an out-of-state resident it is $25,436. UNC-Chapel Hill also requires that all incoming freshman have a personal laptop computer, which will add another $1500-$2500. Knowledge is power, and it don't come cheap. |
Community colleges aren't real colleges.

For UofM, tuition changes depending on what school you are in, and what year you are. For me, in the school of Literature, Sciences, and Arts, tuition is about $8000 a year and then $6000 for dorm, then add on a bunch of miscelaneous fees.

I'm attending Volenteer State Community College, where I will be trying to get my Dental Assistant degree.
And YES, I changed my major. I was going to go for a music assistant major but two problems came up: 1) My teacher/instructor wanted me to learn how to play the piano...which, Heaven knows I won't go near unless I'm singing... :lol: 2) Said teacher/instructor was pushing me toward the BUSINESS part of the major. :o :lol: :P And now, for your viewing pleasure....our school's webpage! :D http://www.vscc.cc.tn.us |
I am currently attending St. Petersburg College in Florida. My major is in Graphic Design and I am going for 2 seprate associates degrees in print design and multimedia design. It is taking me a while to complete both of these degrees, but I am in no rush to get finished, since i enjoy taking all the graphic design classes.

I'm a failure. :cry:
|
We all know that, Mike.

The funny thing is, that the fees at my university were just raised from 120€ (140$) to 170€ (200$) and we had huge protest campaigns against it here since education isn't supposed to cost anything. God bless Germany... So could anyone tell me about the fees in the UK? |

Yer english is crappy? You must know the language well enough, if I didnt know you were from Germany, I'd just assume you were a native speaker. And don't get to down on yerself about it either. English is probably the most f***ed up language there is with all it's idiocyncrocies (I'm SURE I spelled that wrong) and exceptions to rules. You speak English (or at least type it) better than some people who live in English-Speaking countries. Anyways, I'm at Oakton Community College myself. Not doing that well, but I need to go here to keep my job on the Tech Crew here. In fact, I'm supposed to be in class right now. -=Shrugs=- |
Yeah the tdrome is like a magnet for doom so, him and his armor are always attached

Let's see, I'm a 17 year old at a community college (Sante Fe Community College), and I live with my mom, but we're looking for places for me to get a place of my own.
I'm going to have my AA Degree when I'm 18, which is cool! And I'm attending SFCC for two years to transfer to the University of Florida, or maybe Florida State University. I'm majoring in Electric Engineering. And best thing is, some hours ago, I came home from my last final exam. Now my term is over!!! YEYS! |
Yay on the exams being over! :D :D :D

Anyway, what I meant was that my English is still not as good as an English teacher's should be. That's why I want to spend some time abroad, especially to learn to speak better. I guess I'll go to the UK since American colleges seem to be a bit too expensive for me. :dead: |
