My hopes to accomplish by going to college is to become successful in my everyday life. The major I want to excel in is engineering , and I would love to learn a lot about it so I can achieve a successful career. The reason I want to go to college is for my family and myself. Most of my family never made it to college, so I want to be one of the few people in my family to have a further education. My dad was taught in the Army and my mother went through four years at Southern University. Also, I would love to work at a high paying job that requires a lot of skill to help my future family, so I want to go to college for myself. I shall seek the input from my mother because she actually been in a college and she knows all about the college life. She been through the struggle, so she would be a great reference. Many great characteristics that I will look at when choosing a college is the money and location. College has all kinds of information that helps students to achieve their goals. Many professors helps students to be what they want to become in life. Without college, a student may not fully achieve the amount of information that a job they desire requires.
