Do Not Delay Your Entry To College

A recently-entered research study  finds that students who delay college entry or enroll part-time are substantially less likely to earn a college degree. Often the problem for quick college entry is lack of money, but frequently it is the student’s choice. This new study confirms prior research by Cliff Adelman in his landmark study, Answers In The Toolbox.

  1. Academic Momentum does play an important rule. As in life, the more your procrastinate – the lower chances your goals/tasks will be completed. The study emphasizes that “financial aid policies have focused on access and equity”. Today innovations like performance-based financial aid could reinforce academic momentum.

  2. Getting into any college is a privilege and remember that your journey was a mixture of fate, hard work, and a little luck in many ways.
    Definitely, I agree with your post.

  3. Some people can learn at any age, but when you are young you learn quicker and your mind is sharper. Indeed, do not delay college if you can!
