What on earth is 'higher learning?' Have you ever heard of college? If you want to get anywhere in the world, this is something you should look into. You may be excited to finish high school, and it may seem like a drag to spend another four years studying, but most people love college. Your years at university are some of the most memorable of your life, and the degree will help you get way more jobs than you will with just your high school diploma. A college is a school, and a university is a bunch of colleges that work together. There are two kinds of university: undergraduate and graduate. The undergraduate program is the usually four or five year program almost everyone does. Graduate school is for those who want to go on and get a Master's or a Doctorate's. You can find universities that have different specialties. If you are interested in journalism, for example, you can find a school that suits your particular needs. You should consider this when you are looking for the right school. There are military and religious schools, if you're into that. If you can think of a general field you want to study, like economics or law enforcement, let that help you decide which school to attend. The most important things to keep in mind when you are looking at schools are academics and finances. See if you can find a school that offers what you want to study, and has good faculty and resources for students who attend there. Another important thing to consider is the money. You may be eligible for scholarships and other kinds of financial aid, but it depends on the school, so check it out. Get online and look at school websites.
