So I pretty much got accepted to all 3 colleges I applied for. Kendall in Chicago dropped me because I never got back to them, but they were my last resort. I was going to do Hospitality for Kendall. That leaves two. Kansas University and Colombia College (Chicago).
I'm leaning towards KU, but Columbia is more beneficial.
I'm planning on finishing my associates and then going for Journalism. Both schools are great for that degree, so I'm having trouble deciding.
Columbia would give me that city feel, but I'd still be close to home. Journalism would be a good degree to go for here as its located in the city, and that's where major newspapers will be. Also, from what I've heard, my teachers will most likely have written for the newspapers themselves, making it easier to find a job afterwords. Also if I find out Journalism is not my thing, there is more free space to move around. As soon as I visited the school, I wanted to go for like 6 different degrees.
I'm leaning towards Kansas because its quieter than the city, and it also gives me that state university feel I want to experience. My dad graduated there, which is how I first heard about it. I really liked the area and they offer a great program for journalism so that's a plus. I also want to leave this state.
My goals are that I eventually want to travel the world and write. I'd love to do that. I was also interested in hospitality because I've always had a passion for the culinary arts, just not too good at it (mostly following directions). I eventually want to own a restaurant even after I do Journalism.
So the reason I'm posting is because I would like to read some opinions. I'm very indecisive, if you haven't noticed.
