Why attend college?
You will learn skills that will help you both on and off the job.
A person who attends college generally earns more than someone who doesn’t.
How can I go about choosing a college?
Colleges are located in big cities, suburbs, and small towns throughout the country. Some enroll tens of thousands of students; others enroll only a few hundred. Some are public; others are private. Some private institutions are affiliated with religious institutions; others are not. Some schools enroll only women, others only men.
