Bryce Despain - My Life After College

Many students are afraid of their life after college. They are afraid for various reasons, however, each student might even have the same reasons as to why they are afraid of their personal life after college. Some reasons that they are worried about might be less important than other reasons, or vice versa.

If you were to ask me what I was worried about after going to college, I would say many things. For example, one of the main things that I am currently worried about the most is finding a good job afterward. Yes, I might major in something that is very important in life, however, you never know if there is a high demand for that specific job at that moment in time. So, if you get out of college and there is no demand for what you majored in, then you are basically out of luck. I myself am kind of worried about this because many of you know that I either want to become a veterinarian or an architect. However, with either of these jobs, you never know if there will be a high demand for them. I just have to take a big risk with it because both of them are something that I am very interested in. I am also a little afraid of having to pay off any student loans, that is if I don't get any scholarships, however, I'm pretty positive I will get some, as I always have very good grades in school. Another main thing that I'm worried about after college is that depending on what career I do choose to go into, I might have to move somewhere and leave a lot of my friends and family behind. Honestly, I really don't want to do that because I want to live close to most of my family. A lot of people also feel the same exact way that I do, because of this, it might also affect what career they eventually choose to go into.

Although I have many worries about college, I am very excited about living in the "real world." This is mainly because as an independent adult, you experience so much more, and you also learn a whole lot more as well. Life might be rough for you or might become rough at some point, but it is up to you to take control of it and decide whether or not you want to have a good life as an adult.

This is just a list of all the things that I'm worried about after college. Different people might have different things that they are worried about after college, however, these are my main three.
