All right this is my junior year and me and a bunch of my friends are filling out college applications soon the problem is that my guy friends want me to go a southern college but my other friends want me to go to college with them in New York state. I know i should chose my own college but i don’t want to seperate with my friends cuase i know i’ll never see them again. What should i do?

choose for yourself and by yourself. Emails and phones are also made for people who can’t see each other. You don’t have guaranties that you’ll still be friends even if you go at the same colllege. But if you choose properly your education, you can grant yourself a good future, of course with hard work and good luck.

Go to the college you want to go to. You can’t follow your friends thru life! Friendships change so much during college, you might drift away from your high school friends even at the same college. And you’ll be surprised how long the good friendships will last – going to different colleges, stay in touch with a phone call every few weeks & at home on vacations – some old people (40 & older) are still in contact with high school friends. It’s up to you.

Do what makes you happy, to be honest i did little to nothing with my degree im going back to school for my passion. So go to a school that will get you a job in the end if its a good school vs your friends’ school, choose the good school. if its both even with school, go with your friend, if it were me i’d choose new york mainly because its open and cultural there. I love it. Yet choose the school that will help your career! Don’t just go to school to be going learn as much as you can now of all the careers that you are interested in, you will be one step ahead of the rest. Trust me the later you wait to choose your career tha HARDER it is. Trust me. I’m 25 and already busy from work and my son. I am not going to comprimise my son and I am going to cut back my hours at the company mainly because I want to advance with something else. GOOD LUCk. btw….I can’t answer this question for you…..will these friends be there for that long is the question.School willl rule.

Its up to you to decide which college is best for you regardless of friends because nowadays you can contact or reach to a friend with just a click away,think about your future and then decide.All the best
