Why I Want To Go To College

Improved Essays
After my research for colleges the college that will best suit me is Adelphi University. This is evident because it’s close to my hometown, has a affordable tuition, and has a very open campus with a lot of opportunities. Since Adelphi is a 7 minute drive away from where I live it will be a breeze going back home. This is important because when I go to college I may get homesick and would want to come back home every couple of weeks. Another reason is that if there is a family emergency or an event I can go back home in no time at all. Also if I decide to dorm I could live close to home and get my education at the same time.
Adelphi is a private university and normally tuition is high but Adelphi is affordable with a tuition costing $32,340.

    Driven, witty, intelligent, insanely passionate, a bit of a spaz; all of these qualities describe me, a person so optimistic even her blood is positive. From a young age, I have been infatuated with reading, with collecting knowledge, and with helping others. Additionally, my analytical talent has been one of my greatest assets (next to my sparkling and charismatic attitude) and has aided me in both my academic career and social life. Though the school system provides a phenomenal basis for the education gained in post secondary schools, it is not enough to sate my hunger. Every time I have thought about my future and how I can impact others, the plan has always involved going to college and pursuing a multitude of different majors from astronomy…

    Milledgeville is close enough to home so that I could drive home on the weekends to visit my family. Georgia College and State University does have a few downsides along with all the positives. The first down side is that there is only one dining hall. There are restaurants around campus but only select meal plans include these. You can use your money for these restaurants but that is not something…

    I want to go to the College Of Wooster because on the multiple tours I’ve gone on I’ve felt like i’m at home. The college isn’t too big or too small, it’s the perfect size. It’s also not too far from home, but it’s far enough that my parents won’t visit everyday. Along with the campus for freshman we are given a dorm that is all freshman with non coed floors, which is perfect for me. I also want to go to this college because it will allow me to get the best education with the class sizes not being huge like a division one college.…
