How do I find the Right College for Me? Part 1

Saturday, February 27, 2010 by Jeanni Urbahns

I like to do random Google searches just to see what comes up. The other day I was looking to see what came up when I searched for ways to find the right college. Many days I don’t find info that strikes me as interesting, but on this day I came across an article Five Fabulous Questions to Ask a College. I liked it enough to read it all the way through AND am going to answer those questions in regards to Harrison College in a series of five blogs.

Fabulous Question 1: How would you describe the student body’s personality?

I would say DIVERSE. Since Harrison College has campuses from Elkhart to Evansville in Indiana and our newest campus in Columbus, Ohio, we are fortunate enough to work with many types of student.

However, if I were to have to describe the motivations and attitudes of the students at the Columbus Indiana college campus I would say DETERMINED. Many of the students say they chose Harrison College because we fit their career goals. I also often hear that our approach of recognizing each student as an individual is of great value to them.

I would also add that many of our students were looking for a college for working adults too. Being able to take classes during the day, evening, online, or a combination of all of these options is a HUGE benefit.

I know I am a little bias, but I feel our student body has a FABULOUS personality that allows everyone to feel comfortable. Feeling comfortable allows them to learn faster and easier. Learning faster and easier gets them graduated and employed faster. So many I could have just simplified this answer to the word SUCCESSFUL!
