For those of you heading off to university next year, I have a question for you: What are the things you are most concerned/worried about? Work load? Rez life?

Fears can be relieved, you just have to believe.

I'm worried that I'll end up going to McGill, a school famous for grade deflation, and come out with a 2.5 GPA that will get me no where good for grad school so I'll be forced to be underemployed and will subsequently quit after yelling at my stupid college-educated boss and end up on the street selling myself for food (pickles and jam and bread) and drugs.

I'm most worried about finding something I like enough to major in in first year that's also lucrative.

I am most worried about not being able to get good enough marks to get accepted into the program that I want to study, and also making new friends.

This is something that I wish I had when I was moving in! It is quite the extensive list of anything you may need.

I'm definitely worried about University being so different from high school that my marks would drop a lot and I won't be able to keep up whatever scholarship I get

I have chosen a colledge i would like to go to next year. I have also decided that i would like to apply for scholarships as money is tight.

The problem i seem to be having is that i cant seem to find anywhere on the scholarship appliction that states if it is accepted at the school i have chosen to attend. Am i looking in the wrong place or what is a safe way to make sure the scholarships i am applying for are actually accepted at the college i will be attending???

HELP PLEASE!!

Money, for sure.
Not too worried about the grades, always been a pretty strong student.
Just worried that I won't be able to receive money/loans/grants/scholarships for school.
