Should Kids Enter College After High School?

VICTORIA KORINTH, 13

I think that they should. It’s their choice, but I think it’s helpful because it gets you ready for life. There’s a lot of different majors you can try at a community college. I haven’t decided on a major, but I like architecture.

SADIE WILLEY, 12

You can do things without going to college, but I think people should go to college because you can get so many more jobs and you’re setting yourself up for success. I want to be a trauma surgeon.

LUCY KORINTH, 17

I’m a senior in the college application process, seeing where I get in to study business or digital marketing. If I don’t get into my top choices like Cal Poly, I think I’ll go to Cabrillo and then transfer and save like $80,000.

JACKSON ARZOUNI, 13

I would say yes, especially if you want a better career. I’m planning on majoring in Marine Biology. I have a scholarship to Cabrillo because I wrote an essay on why I want to be a Marine Biologist, and I won the scholarship.
