I have met with 100's of students in the past 15 years in education.  I have to say that each person I sit in front of is wanting the

same thing.  An established career that will support themselves in life.  How much of a priority and sacrifice they are willing to take is up to them.

Our typical student always seems to make excuses for getting an education. I reallly believe a person just has to decide on whether they are reay to have better life and make a change for the future.

Well...I'm hearing that the profession needs to change the extreme focus on enrolling students over all else.  For some admission professionals this is all they've ever really known.  For others....it's naturally how they've done it for years anyway.  Stress is different for each person so I'm curious how those in the field are feeling.  Change can be hard....even good change.

I would really want to know what people think on this. I am starting out in this field now, and I want to know just how stressful it can really get
