    The end of college isn't the end of your education, it's just the end of a chapter of your education. But before we think about what comes next, we should really pause to celebrate. Congratulate ourselves. The work to get through higher ed is challenging. And it can be really helpful to use a celebration to close the book on it so you're ready to move on to the next chapter. In this final episode of How to College, we talk about the road ahead.

    Biggest lesson I learned in college was how to learn. It wasn’t about memorizing everything, just know how to find it.
    Even when you’re done, you never stop learning

    "There's no time limit on attending grad school." To be clear, there's no time limit on beginning grad school, many graduate schools have time limits to graduate or your coursework expires. At my university it's 6 years for a Master's and 7 years for a Ph.D.

      Not the most financially advisable thing. Get your education as young as possible to reap benefits later.

    I'm approaching 60 and am still studying new things all the time. I just finished a course on Byzantium, which really helps me round out my knowledge of both ancient and medieval European history. But in recent years, I've also studied science, math, literature, music, and art - there's just no way to learn all the interesting things out there in one lifetime, which is GREAT because I'll never run out of fascinating new things to learn ❤️

    3 years out of undergrad here, and I just recently started trying to learn SQL for my job. It's certainly a lot harder to motivate myself outside of the structure of college, but still satisfying and rewarding!

    I needed this so bad, I just graduated in June and started a job at the same place I interned at. I haven't been able to celebrate because of covid and life feels like a blur without some big crowning achievement to look forward to.

      If I can offer a small piece of advice, it would be this: Get yourself a cupcake or muffin (some small confection you don't often get yourself). Get a candle, put it on the cupcake and light it. Go to a mirror, look yourself in the eyes and smile and say "I did it." Then blow out the candle. And that's it. You're done. In your head you can close the book on college for now.
      Those kinds of things work for me and maybe they'll work for you too :)

    I always run into depression issues when I “reward” myself with downtime. So, now I just get started on the next task (or song) and avoid that drop-off in momentum. I still take it easy some days, but it doesn’t feel like it - if I’ve already started on the next thing. This is 28 years post graduation, and I wish I figured this out a lot earlier.

    I loved college and all the learning experience. But my test taking skills sucked. I could know the material well enough to get a decent grade then lock-up during the tests. I don’t know why I felt so self-conscious about it , even to this day 13 years later

    • @crashcourse
      @crashcourse  ปีที่แล้ว +6

      I had a very similar experience and I still feel weird about it to this day. My bad test taking outweighed all of my other accomplishments in my mind. It took almost until my senior year for me to figure out HOW to study for and mentally prepare for test taking.

    • @EyeLean5280
      @EyeLean5280 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It's not your fault. Test taking showcases a very specific performance ability, while paper-writing showcases another, and presentations yet another. Very, very few people are equally good at all of these types of information recall and I'd bet the rent that you were good at things in college that the star test-takers struggled with.

    the thing that is not being said, at this point.... there is this constant need in America to be Credentialed or Certified solely for the purpose of a job. Times have changed, the way we learn has changed and how we consume education is rapidly moving online and is becoming more individualized as opposed to the traditional classroom setting.
    If we are going to talk about lifelong learning which this video was supposed to be about how about talking about the alternatives to a traditional college education because no one wants to take out massive amounts of student loans to get another degree that will at some point lose its value.
    For example, I went back to college to get a STEM degree, A masters in computer science because I was told STEM degrees were valuable to gaining employment. I got in, took my first programming course, and flunked the first semester.
    I then proceeded to call employment companies that hired Software engineers, majority of the software engineers never had a bachelors and no more than 2 years of college when they were hired yet the career centers at these colleges stay telling students they need to go to grad school or get an internship to get a job.
    there is a disconnect between education and learning, Education is something you obtain and follow to gain prerequisites for a specific major! IT IS NOT A PREREQUISITE FOR LIFE!
    If you got your first degree, just stop at that, no need to get a Masters or a PHD, focus on what your passionate about not what people expect you should be doing!
    So many kids get stuck with the wrong advice and wonder why education has become an extension of who they are, when in reality they need to explore who they are before they go to college that's one reason I am a fan of the gap year.
    You don't start learning for yourself until your out of college and don't have the haviness of college books and tests on you, there's no need to regurgitate, you can take your time.
    Students should take this into account when deciding to get another degree because nothing is better than learning for yourself.

      @Pantology_Enthusiast ปีที่แล้ว +1

      You have good points but I don't believe that is universal. I don't think you're saying that, I just want to clarify.
      You are right in the arts, definitely. Personal exploration and experience are far more valuable than extra degrees in school. That said, I think artists should use school for concepts, business, and resource management more than art techniques. IE, learn accounting because being a starving artist sucks.
      Where I disagree is the E and M of STEM. Honestly, base competency and networking are all you need for IT and computer science. Engineering and medical will not consider hiring under-educated people. Science is a mix of that.

    Universities certainly don’t celebrate lifelong learning. I am trying to go back to school and get a second bachelor’s degree, but because I completed one before, I am barred from even applying to most universities. 😩 I wish I’d known this as a kid getting a degree I wasn’t interested in pursuing. And no, I can’t go to grad school because it’s in a science field and my degree was in animation.
