10 Common Mistakes College Students Make
- Many new college students don’t know what they want to gain from their college experience. Although they do not need to choose a major early or know what career they would love, they need to begin to pay close attention to exactly what excites and interests them and what does not, so they can put the pieces together later.
- Many students select a major because it is the ‘hot’ one on the market at the time. This is a mistake because trends change from year to year.
- Many students try to “fit themselves into a major” instead of “fitting the major to themselves.” Most often, they don’t choose one that excites and interests them.
- Students choose a major erroneously thinking it will train them for a specific job or career. Instead, they should learn to develop their aptitude and abilities to use in life and for the many possible career choices.
- Students don’t realize that a college major does not prepare them for a career. Many other important 3D experiences are essential to get the ‘feel’ for what they may love to do.
- Many students will choose a career path before understanding much about the actual work on a day-to-day basis.
- Frequently, students choose careers based on biased or incomplete information, or on things that will mean less and less to them as time goes by. They need to explore and ask a lot of questions whenever something or someone’s career fascinates them.
- Students are often exposed only to a small number of careers, usually through family and their social circles. This does not give them the opportunity to explore the full range of career choices.
- Too often, college students focus on building resumes instead of building skills. While a resume is a valuable tool, it is not nearly as important as what a student learns and takes away from an experience that can lead him or her to the ultimate career choice. While a great resume may help, passion and knowing the best career path will provide exactly what students will need in those ‘career seeking’ conversations they will have later.
- Often – because they are unsure of which career to choose— they do very little, or nothing, to prepare themselves for any career. This may be the biggest mistake.
