I am really excited but have some worries about college. Can u help?


Question:
I am going to be attending an online college for Criminal Justice... Is this going to be especially hard? Time consuming? And if I need help are there any other Criminal Justice students here to help?? I am really worried about failing this whole thing and that's not a good thought for me to have because I tend to think that if I don't try I didn't fail even if I did.. So any reassurances out there for a nervous new student??

Answer:
Plan your time wisely! You'll have lots of readings to do and papers and such, first year is pretty easy though.

Just try your best to keep up with readings and complete your assignments early.

Usually, during the first week or two of a course, your prof/instructor will give an outline of all assignments and often includes the assignments as part of the course outline. Read them over and keep them in mind while doing your readings for the course and attending lectures.

Never skip class and sit in the front. If you sit in the back you'll be surrounded by kids who are just there because they 'should be' and would rather chat about their weekend at the club than listen to the lecture. Of course, there's nothing wrong with the occasional drunken weekend in college, but you should have your homework done first!

Set yourself a schedule. Say, I'll study for so many minutes/hours a day each week and then stick to it.
if you dont feel you should be in college, DO NOT GO! Everyone seems to think that they MUST go to college, even if they do not belong there. Not everyone belongs in higher education, and many people find this out the hard way, after much wasted time and money. Trust me.
the first question I have to ask is if this college is an accredited established college? Make sure your online college of choice will be recognized should you present a certificate or degree when applying for a job.

The advantage of taking courses online is that you can complete your assignment at your leisure. If this is a field you would like to have as a career, please take it seriously.

Education, nowadays, are a big plus when entering the work force.

Good Luck!
Put yourself in the state of mind of allready succeding your criminal justice field.
Not of one afraid of failing.
Keep a very serious , positive ,mind , and look strait ahead at your goal.
Don't take your eyes off.
Now.
Go for it.
