Any recommended colleges for getting any degree in teaching or business ownership?
I have been dancing for about 8 years now and am interested in owning my own studio, and since starting a company is not the most stable career I also am very interested in teaching English or Art#business #teaching #education

Sarah,
Your question sounds realistic as far as having a backup plan at your age. In that vain, you are already 'steps' ahead. Given that, also consider what college you can afford. State universities offer teaching degrees and you could minor in business to satisfy your entrepreneurial spirit. As part of your college application process, I would suggest you also interview some dance studio owners. I am sure they would love to discuss their journey, to assist with your own. Glad you are leaping into additional education; learning is life-long.
As to Ohio, my family grew up in New England but my sister LOVES Columbus.
All the best,
Donna
Look at state universites.
Visit campuses to determine what suits your personality versus your friends.
Interview dance studio owners.
Visit geographical areas of interest.
Set short and long-term goals. Measure against them periodically.

Hey Sarah,
I currently attend Arizona State University as a business student. ASU has made great strides in becoming a respected university and the W.P. Carey School of Business is one of the highest rated in the country. ASU can provide you a fairly comprehensive overview of business and I know we have entrepreneurial classes that would be perfect. A good friend of mine is studying to be a teacher and he enjoys the teaching college we have here.

This was helpful and I appreciate the recommendation. I've loved traveling my entire life and I've been trying to decide if I want to stay in my state or travel a bit- this helps a lot thank you.
