Lame Excuses for Not Attending College
Don’t make any more excuses why you cannot attend college. Take some more time to consider the benefits of earning a college degree.
1. I can't go to college—nobody in my family has ever gone.
Don’t let this stop you. Every family needs a pioneer to pave the way for future generations. If you decide to enroll in college, you and your family will have something new to be proud of for years to come.
2. I've been in school for 12 years. That's enough! I just want a good job.
You will more than likely get a better job with a higher salary with a college degree. Likewise, college is less restrictive than high school, so you will have more options to attend school when you want and study what you want.
3. I can't go to college because I can't afford it.
There are many different forms of financial aid to help you pay for college, and more financial aid is extended to individuals with low incomes.
4. I can't go because I don't know how to apply or where I want to go.
There are numerous ways to find information about the application processes for different colleges. Any college website will detail its application process on its website, or you can request information from a school and it will send it to you. Most colleges hold college fairs, and you can always visit the campus of a school you are interested in attending to get more information about its application process.
5. I can't go to college—I don't know what I want to do with my life.
Most people are asking the same question. If you attend college, you will learn new things and possibly find a subject that is very interesting. Moreover, you will meet new people who can assist you as you determine your career.
6. I can't go to college, because I just won't fit in.
College campuses are usually very diverse. Plus, most colleges are full of different organizations students can become involved with. For more information contact each school individually you are interested in attending to obtain information about different organizations. You will be surprised how many people you can meet who share your interests.
7. College is too hard for me.
College is difficult for everyone. You will be overwhelmed at times, but with hard work and discipline, you can overcome any difficult challenge you encounter, and remember, most successful students attribute one main factor to their success: they spend a lot of time studying. Most colleges have extensive tutoring services available for students.
