College is a place where people go to increase their knowledge, to prepare for THE future, to get new experience, to meet new people. of couse, different people have different reasons to attend college or university, but all of them want TO change their life for better. But as fAR as my personal opinion is concernED I think that people attend college or university for three basic reasons and they are for better job opportunities, increase in knowledge and essential skills for their future.
First and foremost, People attend colleges for higher studies so that they can get A good job after completing their courses. Colleges offer courses or qualifications that are not offered in high school. Mostly people are attracted towards the money making careers and they like to choose the courses that can give them A good salary in the future. Some students TAKE part time jobs during their studies to GET work experience and money. This experience helps a lot in their future after completing their qualification. A successful life is guided by college or uniVersity diploma.
Secondly, college gives the opportunity to learn what we could not learn in high school. you can discover new interests and passions and this is beneficial in all points. Students share their ideas and information with each other and increase their basic knowledge. They learn to communicate with each other and this helps them in increasing their communication skills which is important in almost every job today.
Lastly, people want to prepare certain skills which MUST EXIST in developed society namely competItive experience, group work etc. These skills will be sufficient weapons for them to compete with others in their practical life. People who INTEND to apply what they have learned in college or university really choose the best way to success.
In short, there are many reasons that a student goes to college, and everyone has his own one. Whether they are attracted by the career prospects, money, new skills or experience, most students choose to study at college and this is the best way to success.

People attend college or university for many different reasons (for example, new experiences, career preparation, increased knowledge).Why do you think people attend college or university? Use specific reasons and examples to support your answer.

The fact has proved that the education system takes the most important role in the development of one country's economy and society. There are more people going to colleges or univeristies day by day. I believe that people attending college or university to get professional knowledge, to prepare for future carrer and imporve social position.

Let's start with the first reason. In college of univeristy, students are taught alot in specialized subjects. For example, bussiness students study Finance, Accounting, Insurance, Marketing, etc. Computer science students study Progamming, Hard wares, Soft wares subject, and the like. These specialized subjects help students forming their professional knowledge.

Beside getting professional knowledge, students have chance to meet employers through school's carreer center in their last studying year. Student can find everything related to his future carees there, from which foreign language, knowledge of information technology... to capability of answering a phone call that employers required. A student is also well aware of his competitors, other students. Thus, students can manage to prepare for all that employers' need and prove to employers that they are worth to get paid.

Finally, by attending college or university people can imporve their social position. This reason is simply the results of the two former ones. With good professional knowledge, careful career preparation a student can find a good job in a reputation company with high salary. His contributions to the success of the company is considerable. Then he is repected by the employer and other colleagues. That student's position (maybe from a farmer's son) is now improved (maybe a department manager in a big company)

For above reason, attending college or univeristy is good for a person himself in particular for the society in general.
