The College Blog is a blog for students, by students. All of our writers are either college students now or have been college students in recent years. We know what it is like to be at a university, and we can help you get through it and earn your degree. Student success starts here!

We feature topics on living on campus, living off campus, financial aid and jobs, along with more light hearted topics such as fashion, fitness and athletics. Of course, we also have a a general college category for more broad posts that can still help you, but don't fit in one of our narrower focuses.

We have a lot of great content already, be sure to check out some of the favorites:
If you have any particular topic you'd like to see on the blog, let us know! Better yet, if you would like to join the team, go ahead and send us a message!

We also offer affordable advertising opportunities to all of our readers who may have a site, product or service of their own to promote. Check out the Advertise page for more details.

I hope you find the blog useful and that you enjoy reading it regularly. There's a lot content in the wings just waiting to appear before your eyes. Stay tuned to The College Blog!
 
I have moved it for you.

It looks great! Good luck with it. 🙂
 
Over the weekend, we had over 300 views on The College Blog, many of which were returning visitors! Why don't you join them and check The College Blog daily for great content about college life? This week is packed full of great content, focused on moving in and getting ready to go back to school. There's SO MUCH content that it is even going to be hard to promote all of it! You don't want to miss it!

It looks great.

I'm going to college next summer. I'll be doing Information and Network Technologies and Major in Computer Forensics. 🙂

Thanks Mik!

The computer science field is definitely a great one to get into. I actually have a blog post coming up next week on that very subject, you should check it out! 🙂
 
Cool! I absolutely love computers.

Today I saw the curriculum for my degree and I'll be taking 4 classes per semester (18 credits). 😀

4 classes = 18 credits? Those must be long classes. I'm taking 4 this semester and that's only 12 credits (3 per class, which I thought was standard). Odd.
 
I really like your blog. It would be great if you could write some articles to help international students with their application process.
 
Yeah, my parents were surprised too that the classes were so many credits.

All of the classes for the degree had 4.5 credits.

Anyways, that would be a good idea Tindris. It could reach a bigger audience. 🙂

You have some nice articles written recently!

I was looking into going into Computer Science but for the career I want they require me to get an Information Technology.

I'm glad you took that article suggestion about international students! I'll definitely be reading the Dos and Don'ts for my first day. 🙂

Keep up the good work Geoffrey!
