College Insights
How you college is much more vital to college success than where you college. Less than 1/2 of college students graduate in 4 years, and about 25% of them drop out completely before graduating. The vast majority of these students drop out because they’ve faced a significant challenge, be it a difficult professor, a failed class, a bad relationship, doubt about their major, etc., and they didn’t have the coping skills to successfully resolve the problem(s) they faced.
