College Applications and the letters of acceptance, denial, and wait listing are anxiety producing.
What if it where you go to college isn't as important as who you are and what you can get from your education at a variety of colleges?

ALSO don't forget that you may not even need a 4-year degree to work a career that provides a paycheck that offers you a very comfortable quality of life. EXAMPLE: Machinist 2-Year Technical Degree at SCC (Machinist/CNC Technology) (~$11,600 / year for 2 years) Career - Honeywell (Spokane Valley) - Average Pay $27K - $55K / year |
