C.C.R. Moment…
(College and Career Readiness) Are you getting ready for college, ambivalent about the next chapter of your life? Don’t worry, you are about to travel a well worn path…i.e., you are not alone.
Are you having second thoughts about your school choice? Give it one year, you can always transfer.
Worried that you do not have the skill set to be successful? High school and college are two entirely different universes when it comes to academics – in college, if you don’t do your homework or study for that exam…generally speaking, nobody really cares except perhaps your mother.
Don’t really have any idea what your major is going to be? That is why they have new student orientation – to start your career exploration process.
The college experience is all about the process of exploration, enhancing your academic and social skills, building networks, and making those lifelong connections. By the beginning of your junior year, you should be laying out your particular pathway to success in whatever field you choose to study.
Just in case you have not heard, the latest research indicates that people change careers at least, 5 or 6 times over the course of their lifetime…5 or 6 times!!
So get ready to have some fun and begin your journey…try to remember one basic tenet for success…choose a major that you love and, most likely, good grades and, eventually, the money will follow.
