Don't worry Nan, it's all part of growing up. As long as you don't do it too fast, you'll get where you should end up at. :}

@Nan: I wanted to say, so you should stay there in dorm. And 3 hours isn't so far away in case you want to get home :)
Also, yeah, they are completely different. In my country, to be exact in the City where my university is now, the Collages or Universities differ from each other a bit. I mean, their system does.
Also, as Dream said, you will get to everything when the time comes :)

Thanks guys ;w;
One more thing, please? How was the financial issue to you guys? I've been told not to mind so much about the money by a couple adults and then to go to a cheaper school by my college counselor... I am having headaches everyday ;w;

Due to medical reasons I didn't get to attend College, which i still find a miss to this day (Hence me stating one regrets more what they don't do).
Spoiler
My country changed the Law of Financing education a short while back, but when I was the age the rules where that you'd get a certain government funding. Depending if you lived at Home, Out of home (Dorms or on your Own) and if or if not your parents were capable to help, you would be given a certain amount of money. You would only need to take out a loan for any aditional costs. And there have been enough students who managed it on Funding and a part-time job.
Student Loans weren't that steep, mostly because education here isn't even half as expensive as in America. Plus if you got your propaedeutics, and were allowed to continue in your chosen education in most cases that part of the Loans were absolved once you got your Diploma.
Nowadays you have to take out a loan for the whole amount as the Student fundings have been removed. So people now will have a bigger debt.
Put all of that under a spoiler.
Basically, it will be a bit tough. You'll have to learn how to balance a budget and how to keep yourself to it. You will Learn this.
Find a side job near your school that is both fun, educational, and worthwhile. This can be anything from waiting tables to something in the arts like writing or drawing for commissions.
Look for something that suits both what you want to become and who you are now. :}

Hi Dream :)
Btw, where are you living? :D
@Nan: Well, in my country when you go to your first university you get funding from the government, so basically it is free. But there are limited places to get the free ones, and there are some more which you have to pay and that is decided by the university itself how much you have to pay. But usually isn't cheap. And how you get either on the free or paying places is decided by your marks. At my university we have 180 places in total, and 150 is free. Last years with my final mark I was around the 70th, 80th, so I never thought what if I get to the paying places. Basically it is not possible.
So, all you have to worry about here is to pay for the food and shelter.
I don't really think that helps you...
What happy thing happened to you? :D
Today I petted a stray dog and he was so happy about it

Thank you thank you, all information and opinions are good to me!
I just had a talk with my parents and they disagreed with my business administration major... I only chose it because I didn't want to go undeclared so it doesn't matter to me as much. I did think of nursing or similar to that field, and they want me to do that as well... problem is, the school far away doesn't have the major/program that I want :c
And yea, those don't really apply to me uwu; They do sound lovely though.
Happy birthday to your cat! :D

Ah, well. Picking a school that offers classes and Majors in the fields you want to end up working at is important too.
Why not go undeclared though? You might find something you've never considered that fits you perfectly.
It is a lot to think about and I'm certain you will do fine. :}

Wow, choosing is sure hard. :( But how dream said it you will do fine.
My parents said to me that I should do whatever I want. Also told me that if I ever feel I can't take it anymore I can quit anytime. Not in my case, though, haha
@Dream: Happy Birthday for your cat! :D Mine is 14 years old. Old lady fatass xD
