 Graduation does not stop in high school, it continued trough out life. A bridge to cross that is very important is the college bridge, it is not an incidence that many have failed in college, according to polls majority of college freshmen do not get to graduate because they choose the wrong college, failed to study, fail to go to class regularly, and lack of study skill. We recently found out that most college applicants do not know why they are even going to college because parting and drinking has over shadowed the important reason for being in college.
        Why go to college to drink and party? if this is your habit, have you ever asked yourself that question? if you haven't you should, if just to have fun and do what you could not do at home are your first reasons to attending college then you are likely to fail college and be a college drop out; face the reality and get back on track.  Majority of college drop outs do not go back to college because of the system of punishment for getting kicked out of college, bad grades from partying too much, excessive drinking and failure to attend classes and lack of urge to study for exam early are the reason why most college student get put on probation, probation is a punishement give to any college student who's GPA droped below 2.0, the word probation isn't as easy as it sound to student, because it comes with a consequence of no financial aid fund for the following school year, therefore most student on probation who could not afford to pay for college tuition and board end up dropping out and unable to return to school. 
       Parents and guardians have a lot of work to do to ensure their children are successful in college, they must teach them how to study effectively at an early age, get them used to it, it will be a useful habits to get them trough college and they will appreciate it dearly. Pay them visits, have meetings with them with their college counsellors, calmly talk to them about the importance of graduating from college without using force. 
        In other to pick the right college, you must first know you are going to college to graduate and not to fail or get kicked out, after you have recognized and accept to do what ever it take to study and pass exam in other to graduate the next step is know what major you are interested in, find schools thaat are specialized in your major, research a couple of schools, see how much it cost to attend each schools you researched, make sure they are acredited then select your school of choice; don't go to college because your friends go there, got to school to work towards you career goal, once you find out your field of choice, be familiar with your college Seniors, know how they did it and how they manage to survive, if you ever allow our self to  asked them, they will tell you all they did was study, do all home works on time  and go to lectures. Have a study schedule and set a reminder on our door or on your phone let the phone ring to you to remind you to study, this will renew you awareness to why you are attending college.
