Also, college experience changes your ideas for life. You get rid of your feeling of importance which you had at high school and realize that in the larger picture, it doesn’t matter if you wear branded clothes or have the hottest hairstyle College also helps you feel free to start conversations with people on many topics. It’s good for you to improve your communication skills. Of course, you may feel nervous and awkward at first. It’s quite understandable.
