California Jazz Conservatory, Class of 2018, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

It seems like the year has gone by a lot faster than my years in grade school. Maybe it’s because this is better? My first year at the California Jazz Conservatory ended very well. Of course, there were the “dreaded” finals that everyone talks about, but I think that I did pretty well in all…

Summer 2015

Class of 2018, College of Marin, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

Even though I would like to take summer classes that is not possible for me right now. I say this because I can not afford to go to school in the summer. One reason for this is due to the fact that I attend school across the San Rafael-Richmond bridge and bus transportation is very…

The Best Is Yet To Come

Class of 2018, Student Success Stories, UC Santa CruzBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

As my first year of college reached its end, I realize that I have changed so much in just one year. It’s crazy to think for a moment and acknowledge how much I learned from myself this year. I got to see for myself what my weakness and strengths are, and how to manage my…

Third quarter

Class of 2018, Student Success Stories, UC DavisBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

This school year my experiences taught me several things. I did not do so well in my first two quarters but I improved greatly on my third quarter in college which I am so proud of. I worked so hard in all of my classes and I learned that I should stop comparing myself to…

The end of my second quater

Class of 2018, Student Success Stories, UC DavisBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

My second quarter in college was definitely the hardest one considering that I took Calculus. I took the math placement test and I placed into it so I figured that I would be able to keep up with the class. But I was wrong and I Wish I would have taken more lower division math…

Freshman Year

Cal State San Bernadino, Class of 2018, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

My freshman year in college had its ups and it’s downs. At the beginning it was a slight challenge adjusting and staying on top of everything. As the weeks went on I was better adjusted and developed better study habits. My freshman year was no easy journey. One of my best friends passed away and…

A Challenge, something fun, & a piece of excitement.

Cal State San Bernadino, Class of 2018, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

College has been a fun, exciting, and a challenging experience so far. A challenge of course is the workload. The amount of work you have to do in high school can’t even compare to college. I miss my high school homework load very much. A fun part of college is my biology class. The biology…

My Initial college fears

Cal State San Bernadino, Class of 2018, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

Initially, I thought college was going be extremely tough and overwhelming. And the stories most high school students, including myself, are bombarded with about college being extremely hard with countless amount of hours of homework did not help. I was stressing my self out just thinking about it. I thought I was going to be…

One of the main differences between high school and college.

Cal State San Bernadino, Class of 2018, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffJune 25, 2015

College so far is nothing like high school; and there are many changes I noticed between the two. The main two differences, however I noticed is that there is a substantial change in maturity levels from high school students to college students, and students do not receive as much support from college professors as they…

Wrapping up my summer in 500 words is possible however, it won’t fully represent how I feel about it. This summer already feels overwhelming.Trying to figure out my life is frustrating. I feel both physically and mentally exhausted. I haven’t had a break to myself. Right when school ended in May I began working the…
