College is a big part of any person’s life. It will be the most toughest years of your life. For as long we can remember in school teachers are always saying what you do now starting from elementary school till you graduate high school will have an impact on your life for the next few years. From tv shows to movies they depict college has the most fun you will ever have and the friends that you make will be at your wedding some day. But before you can even get into college it is the grueling admissions process. A process many students and parents may dread. You have to register on the common app site, apply for scholarships if you want / need them, keep up a certain grade point to get into your school of choice, take and retake the SATs and ACTs to get that grade for your dream school. If you are a musician or athlete keep up in those areas to hopefully get scouted for a scholarship. A lot goes into and preparing to apply to colleges that many people do
not understand until they go the point. Going to school is very expensive, so for some people it is not an option, or having to take out students loans and paying them back till the day you die. A majority of the people that get accepted into college is done so on a fair basis but with the wake of Operation Varsity Blues that paints a different story. If you thought getting into school was hard, try fitting in once you get past the grueling admission process. There are many stories we hear about sororities and fraternities hazing and doing unspeakable things that cause national attention. And Operation Varsity Blues and hazing and greek life in general is a social issue because we have friends and family who are in or going through the college process, with it being spring many students are finalizing where it is they want to go next fall, and with the scandals going on it may hinder on that choice if the school they want to go to is involved in such acts.
