It is not always an obligation for students to enter college or university; however, lots of them go there for their better life and future. People can go to a college or university for many reasons; such as new experiences, career preparation, and increased knowledge. I, as a student in high school, often think about why I should go to a university; and then I come to two narrowed reasons.
First of all, I can have more time of preparation for my career in a university. If I have a degree from the university, I would have a better chance of getting better offer and work in a company. Also, by increasing my knowledge and skills in the university, I can perform my duty more successfully. Thus, learning and getting degree will let one reach higher goal in one’s career.
Second of all, you can make friends in the university. Since you are most likely to meet friends who got their former education in different places, you surely have a bunch of things to learn from them. Your friendship can grow through studying or going on a trip together. These friendships earned in the university will not just end in short-term, but they are likely to last long. For example, whenever I visit my uncle’s office, it is not rare to see him working with his peers from his university.
All in all, preparing for the career and having a lot of friends can be two of various reasons why I think people go to the university. We should always remind that knowing the reasons of getting education is the step we should take before we move on to get them. As I mentioned above, going to a university will help you in diverse ways. |
