I read Kurt Vonnegut's "Player Piano" as well as several of his short stories that depict a future in which all "jobs" have been eliminated - machines do everything. The people who have meaningful work find their life has less meaning. They ask, "What are humans FOR?" So, I wonder what...

I really want to go to law school but I would love to stay close to my family. Which one should I pick? #school #lawschool #help #college

As a white middle class female, I have not gone through a lot of trauma or heartache in my life. I have a loving family who can provide for me, good friends that I trust and adore, and a future at a well respected university. I have decided to major in neuroscience so that I can help people by...

I will be entering college in the fall and I want to know what strategies I can use to get an internship that I want.#internships

I have found effective ways to study for some classes, but not all of them so I wanted to what other people have done.#studying-tips

I have recently been accepted to one of my top choices for school, but unfortunately the annual tuition is over $50,000 a year. I would rather not have to take out loans and start my working career in debt. #tuition #education

I know that the entertainment industry is a hard field to get into, so I am curious to know the best route to take to achieve my goals. #entertainment #careergoal

I was recently accepted into UCSB and I was wondering if I should accept loans to pay for school? #loans #student-loans #financial-aid #college

I got accepted into UCSB and I was wondering if I should live on-campus? #apartments

I was recently accepted into University of California Santa Barbara and room and board is very expensive. Should I live on-campus or find an apartment elsewhere? #college #college-advice #college-bound

I recently was accepted into University of California Santa Barbara and to pay room and board, they recommend $8,000 in loans. Are getting loans a good or bad idea for college? #college-tuition #loans #college

I've been looking into data science careers, and I know that it is closely related with machine learning and big data. I'm confused as to what the difference between data science and machine learning is, and also how big data plays in a part in both fields. What exactly is data science and...

I'm currently a third year computer science major, and I've recently discovered a passion for data science and machine learning. I've been trying to learn more about it, and I've found many online resources (Udacity's data analyst, machine learning nano degrees, Stanford's Intro to Machine...

I am not an athletic person, or a big fan of sports, so I’d like to know what other activities I can be involved in as a sort of “alternative.”

So right now, I am involved in three programs that I recieve good hours in, but I want to do more hours, as well as having a variety of experience in other fields.

I am transferring to a four-year institution this Fall 2018, and I would like to know if I can change my major from one science to another if needed or if I desire.

I'd like to have a lot of jobs when I'm older. I'd like to be an environmental activist, a teacher, an archaeologist, an author, and many more! How can I do all these if I can only go to college to prepare for getting one job?

I'm wanting to become someone that helps the environment when I grow up. It's my preferred field of study and I'm currently taking AP Environmental Science at school and I really want to get involved in it when I go to college.

I love science but I also love writing short stories and sometimes I wonder if I will ever regret not choosing English as my major. I love biology and everything that involves it but how do you know if you are making the correct decision?
#undecided

I have realized that I don't know how to study, I could be reviewing vocabulary and the next day I'll forget it. I have tried many methods but I don't think they are helping.

When applying to UC schools in California, what GPA do the schools look at (i.e. scholastic, weighted, unweighted, etc), because I want to be prepared to take the right classes?

I get really nervous before a job interview and feel like I may come across as less confident because of my nerves.

I sometimes find it difficult to figure out the best way to study for exams and tests. I feel that no matter how much time I give myself or how early I start studying, I still don't feel as confident as I would like to.

I'm open to answers from both fellow students and former students for this question! I'm currently taking a literature class, and I absolutely love it, but that's in regards to all the novels on our reading syllabus being outstanding reads and my own innate passion for literature. When it comes...

Rather than being one or the other, I'm wondering if you can be both. I'm aware that each type of editor has a different skill set; however, I love the idea of doing both types of editing and I wouldn't want to limit myself to one type. Plus, wouldn't the flexibility of being able to do either...

Most of the schools that I've applied to offer summer programs that have classes and they offer college credit. Should I do that or should I just go to the CC nearby and then move for the school year? #college #Summer #Puzzled

I've been accepted to some colleges and I am stuck in deciding where to go. Some are kinda pricey and I don't know whether to keep it safe and go to a low cost school or take the risk and go to the more risky schools.

The veterinary field is a great interest for me so knowing some extra information beforehand seemed like a good idea. Plus i wanted to know what the work load is like for someone in pursuit of this career whether in college (undergraduate,graduate) or already working within the veterinary...

In the future i hope to pursue a career in veterinary medicine and was interested in what they do on a daily basis or what a day for them would look like. Also what makes them stick with the job and causes them to love it. Since it takes years to be able to work as a vet, i wanted to know if...

I'm a third year computer science major, and I've been trying to learn more about data science/big data/machine learning. There aren't any classes offered at the college that I'm attending that cover these topics, and I'm a little lost as to how I would get started in any of these fields. What...

For those who are in the engineering work force, where do you all live? Do most engineers live in major cities, or more in the suburbs? I don't really want to live in a big city, but I am worried that that will hinder my choices at getting a job, at least a first job. Do any of you all live in...

I will be attending college as an engineering major, and I don't know if I want to pursue a graduate degree or not. I was wondering what percentage of the engineering work force only has undergraduate degrees and what percentage has graduate degrees. How significant is the job difference...

I am a HS senior and I've been accepted to some of the colleges that I applied to. The one thing that is bothering me is that I don't know what to do once I choose the school I'll spend for another 4 years. #Any #tips #thanks #college

I've heard that applying to architecture schools is really competitive. I've looked up some sample portfolios online, and they're always so amazing! I think of myself as an artistic person, but I don't think my art skills are phenomenal. If I don't have fantastic art pieces for my portfolio,...

I'm asking this question because I'm interested in studying architecture in college and maybe making it my career. Before I do decide, I just want to know the difficulties of being an architect and see if it is for me.

My dream career is to be a fiction author, but I know it's not really a financially-stable career, so I've been thinking of being an editor because I really, really love editing writing. I think I have an eye for it since I've always been the one that my peers come to for proofreading and...

I'm not in college yet, so it might be a little early for me to be asking, but I'd really like to be a copy editor for books and I was wondering if I could get an internship at a publishing company in the future, to scope out the environment and get more experience with the job. Will I have...

Aside of having my first job interview, it was a phone interview. It was intense.

I understand that majors in animal science are helpful, but are degrees like biology, zoology, and wildlife biology acceptable?

Some websites do offer "scholarship matches," but they skip some that you do qualify for, and it's difficult to sort through hundreds just to find one or two you qualify for.

I've been looking since last year to hopefully prepare for when I go off to college.
But, every website that I've been on have really been a hit and miss and almost nothing is for me. #helpme #needfunds #collegeisexpensive #college #financial-aid #scholarships

I already have more than enough credits and I've taken all the necessary classes to graduate. So why?
