Do you have to pay to study abroad?

When i go to college, I may want to spend a semester in Europe. I'm not sure if colleges cover that or if you have to come out of pocket with your money. #study-abroad

How much training do you need to be a graphic designer?

My instructor told us that we don't get certification in our program because "you can't certify talent." That being said, how do I know when my skills are adequate? What kind of training is most important for a graphic designer- knowledge in the software, artistic skill, or raw creativity?...

Is it better to work from home or from a workplace

Is it better for a graphic designer specifically to work freelancing from home or AT a business, for a business? What are the pros and cons to both? I know this is the career field I want to enter, but I'm not sure what the best way to go about it is. Thanks! #design #graphics

Is it worth going to graduate school for art? Would it help me get a better job in that field

I plan on majoring in art in college but I am not really sure what I will be able to use it for after college. So, I would think that going to an even higher level of education for it would be futile, but then again it might help. #phd

What would be the best minor to pair with a major in accounting, in terms of helping get a job?

My major is currently set as accounting as I start college in the fall, but I am still unsure what the best path is for determining a minor. I know I am interested mostly in business, but don't know exactly what else to study besides accounting. #business #accounting #job #major #future-careers...

In your professional opinion, do you believe the increase in technology will decrease the demand for accountants because some of their jobs will become obsolete?

I am planning on majoring in accounting, but I am beginning to worry as I've heard comments about how technology will decrease the demand for accountants and therefore getting a job will be increasingly difficult. #technology #jobs #accounting #majors #demand

Do most student loans have to start being paid when you are still in college?

College is expensive and I am wondering if I should take out student loans or not. If I have to start paying it off right away and not after college, then I do not want to get them because I do not have a lot of money as of now. #college

If I were to pursue a career in accounting, what should I major in, in this day and age and for the next couple of decades?

I know some people prefer to major in math and others just take the major in economics, but is there a preference in the labor force? Will the demand for one be higher, and which one is more flexible to getting a job? #business #accounting #math

Is it possible to get a good job in business without enrolling in a specialized business school/college of a university?

I was rejected as a Ross pre-admit at the University of Michigan, so I started thinking about what would happen to me if I never got in, even for regular admission of Ross. I heard people who major in economics at LSA (the general studies college at UMich) are not nearly as successful as those...
