What are some services at college that help students mentally and emotionally ?

Students at college are often away from their families, their support networks, so what services do colleges have to act as that network? Do colleges have services that step in when students have stress induced panic attacks of students suffer mental illnesses? #management

How do you know what you want to do with your life?

At 18 students are often forced to think about what they want to do for the REST of their lives. How do they know if what they are passionate about now will make a good career choice for them or if it they will even like their major a year later ?

There are so many websites where you are given the opportunity to apply for scholarships, but the majority of them involve having to spend 20mins creating an account with every single website in order to start applying and most of them don't even apply to me after I've created my account. Is there a specific website or place where I can look for the best scholarships where there are hundreds of different types?
