All my life I knew two things: I would be at church on Sunday and that I was going to college. As for the latter, I really never gave much thought as to why I was going to college.

The main three reasons why I want to attend college is to grow socially, personally, and obtaining a college degree provides one with financial freedom. As I get ready to take this big step in my life, I will keep these three reasons in mind and hope to become a better person because of my college experience.
