I would go to straight to college, I think if you leave it for a while, you will get out of the habit of school.  Please go to college. My daughter did'nt go straight to college, and still keeps saying she will.  This is 2 years later.  Good luck in whatever you choose to do

Finish formal education, work part time and then if you want to work full time later do it.

While people you know that are your age may be close to graduation, there are still many around who haven't even started yet. At age 21, you are still very young and have many, many years ahead of you. \n\nDon't be discouraged because you have decided to take charge of you life and go to college. You are right where YOU should be. Don't live your life looking around you, look to yourself to find your own way and what works best for you.\n\nYou will be fine as long as you stay focused on your goal and never give up. Be proud that you are able to go to college and take care of yourself. You will be at an advantage when you go to college because you are more mature and have more life experience that will benefit you in college.

College may not be the best choice.  Save your money, trust me.

The one thing I wished I had done was go to a college further away from home.  Although I didn't live at home during college, it's nice to be forced to branch out a little more.  A lot of my friends who went to school out of state have ended up finding better jobs because it forced them to network more, to fight harder to get hired, and they were more comfortable relocating after college.\n\nAlso, if College B has a lot more courses, in general, that would probably be your best bet.  You may change your major when you go to school, even though you may feel strongly about something right now.  But, if you go to a college that offers a lot of courses, then you'll have more options if you change your mind about something.\n\nI think that you should weigh all of the options, decide which school you would pick if scholarships WEREN'T a factor, then participate in the scholarship competition, and if you get the scholarship offers from both schools, choose the one you would pick if you didn't get a scholarship.\n\nGood luck!

No.  You should stay with the same job.\n\nMost employers don't expect college grads to have LOTS of work experience.  They're usually happy to see a little.  The fact that you've been with the same company for so many years will make most employers think highly of you.  It is rare for someone so young to have that kind of dedication and consistency, so I think it will turn out to be a big plus when it comes time to interview after college.  Especially if you have a variety of positions with the same company.  You're in good shape!\n\nBest of luck to you.

No it is an excellent idea and you are ahead of most of your classmates at this point.  Continue searching for colleges because your senior year will be so less stressful.

Age is just a number. My parents are 11 years apart!!! and they happily had me so don't worry about it... But personally I would wait until you are out of highschool.. This way your parents wouldn't flip a bitch when you went out with a 23 year old..... Also it could give you more freedom... If you are in your senior year you only have until june! use this spare time to get closer to him and enjoy his friendship.. Then you can use the friendship time to decide if he is really worth it... worth something you could be serious about.. and if he isn't worth it you will be glad you thought about it through without pissing your parents off anyways.... Just don't rush into things and wait.... then things could be perfecto.. Good luck... also... remember you are applying to colleges if they aren't near his he may not be wanting to give up everythign to move with you... keep that in mind so you don't get hurt.

Depends on what you want to do with your life.  If you decide the military, you can go to college at the same time.

Look into a Pathways program. You can earn college credits while you're still in school. It will save you a lot of time when you graduate from high school.

There is nothing that says you have to go to school in your case.  Plenty of people are successful without college. You should look at what you want to do for a job and base your decision on that.  Would you go to school if it guaranteed you higher wages in the future and for the rest of your life?  Find your reason for going to school and theres your motivation.  If you don't find a reason, then you might as well save your money.

You should be looking into interning while your finishing up your last classes in college.  That way when you graduate you will already have on the job experience to go along with your degree.

If you cannot see yourself achieving thiese goals, then why stress yourself out to do so? Life has no timelines. No rush to do things before a certain point. Why not plan a few years in advance? Try graduating first. Now, as far as buying a home, thats not a bad idea, my boyfriend and I are still in college and bought a duplex (home as well as investment). Get married after graduating is not a bad idea, depending on how old you are, it might be better to wait. I would wait until working for at least a year or so for the baby so you can have sick leave and vacation built up,  as well as money saved hopefully. Why rush? Why not make it a happy experience? I want a baby badly too, but why make myself miserable and poor by having it now?

It depends.  If you have financial contraints to go to college, you might have to work before going to college.  If you can afford it and want to go to college, it's better to go straight to college from high school so you're not distracted by anything else.  Procrastination can prevent you from finishing college.
