Some questions about college...

[JacobG]

Hello everyone,

I'm looking into going to college. I was wanting to maybe go for software development. I was hoping maybe someone with college experience can provide me with some insight as to what i should major in? Whats a good thing to go to college for now a days? I was also looking at web designing. I want it definetly to have to do with computers! What are some good college options for online college? Like actual names of some colleges. I was looking at University of Phoenix. Anyone got any comments on that college? I've heard some good and bad things but more on the good side. I was just hoping to get some un-biased information on it. Well I sure hope i posted this is the right section, didn't really see anywhere else this may have belonged (including where i posted it).

I appreciate any information provided!

Thanks,

Jacob G.

In my opinion, online colleges don't have as much reputation as going to an actual (physically built) college which has history to it. You can do multiple things to major in. For example, I did a biology/pre-medicine major. You can do dual major such as Art/Biology (very busy work), or a major and a minor (Biochemistry major, and spanish minor). Computer science is a good major but determine which college you want to go to that gives you options.
