We are in the middle of a crisis. For some this is the worst and longest in the history of the USA. Our schools are affected with this reality and we have to be more careful on this times. When you see that days goes by and no one knocks your door or dial your number in order to get information about your school programs, prices, plans or any kind of information, then you start to panic. When finally a prospective student walks in you see the light at the end of the tunnel, and then is when you are more vulnerable to make mistakes. Perhaps this person is not qualified for any of the school programs and you can not avoid this fact and act like you are not aware of that. People have to meet all qualifications, you have to check every point, you have to get everything well done because this can put your school license on jeopardy and also your school reputation.

I have attended so many schools in the last 11 years, and every school has its own policy about the attendance issue. The smaller size schools are struggeling to get students in and therefore, they try to make it as simplified and as sweet for the students as possible by not stressing much on attendance. I know of schools that would let you attend only one day a week and will count it as a 40 hour week. I know that this is done in order for the school not to lose the student and the money that he or she is paying. How do we do to enforce the attendance issue without getting the small schools to lose the money?

There is often a misconstrued idea by many people and myself when I was going to college that it was certain the college would find you a job. It seemed like to me, that colleges don't seem to clarify this in thier marketing strategies and students are mislead. Is this the institutions way of trying to get higher enrollement?

So many times I have seen students after they have been attending an institution still not understand the terms of thier financial aid loans and interest rates. Financial responsibilty in most cases is something that young adults are not prepared for when they are at the collegiate level.
