Essay 1 Topic 1 Why go to university?

In every society, there is a need to be educated. The reasons may vary from learning more

about Geography to understanding how to set up a profitable small business. Some

students may attend school to become more environmentally aware and to learn more

about small business administration.

School can offer a person knowledge about academic subjects such as Geography. Case

in point, a student studying Physical Geography can learn about how mountains are

formed, thus developing in him a deeper respect for the environment. Consequently, the

student may decide to take such a class in order to make sure that our earth is protected

from neglect in future generations.

Recognizing the need to earn money, many students attend school so they can learn small

business administration. One of my friends from Taiwan is studying in an MBA program

right now, so he can return to work in his father`s company. This student wants to attend

school now so that he can develop the entrepreneurial skills which will help him grow his

father`s business.

In short, these reasons show that many attend school in order to become more valuable,

more productive citizens of a society learning more about the world in which we live as

well as understanding about how to earn money in business.

Essay 2 Topic 1 Why go to university?

Nowadays children are always told to study hard so as to attend college or university.

When they were very young, their parents made them believe that studying hard and then

going to college is the only way to their bright future. As a matter of fact, the children

themselves do not really know why they should attend college when they grow up. And

their parents may know the reasons either from their own experience or from others`

around them.

In my point of view, when I was in Senior Middle School, I thought the reason why I

should go to college was that I could experience another way of life-----the life in college,

for I had heard that college life was very pleasant. I had imagined that kind of life to be

so wonderful that it deserved my efforts. Another reason is that my parents would be

went to college, I would learn much more and could find a good job in the future to live a

good life. In fact, many classmates of mine at that time hoped that they could leave their

parents to live alone. And to go to college was a good reason for them to go out. Also

there were students who wanted to meet more friends in the college.

After I graduated, now I think as society develops, people`s conception towards

education has developed, too. In their minds, college education is a necessary stage for a

person to experience. Maybe they will not have a good job after they graduate, or they

will not use what they have learned during college time, they should still have the

experience of university life. During college time, the students can learn how to get on

well with others, how to plan their time, how to study by themselves and how to live by

themselves more than the knowledge in books. The former is more helpful not only to

their future career but to their future life.

At last, I`d like to say that whatever reason one has to attend college or university, he

should make good use of the time he spends at college. Since he has got the opportunity

to study at college, he`d better try your best to realize his dream.

Essay 3 Topic 1 Why go to university?

University is the place where students get knowledge and new experiences. Studying in

university gives a vast exposure to the student in his specified field. University builds a

professional base in the student.

Till their higher school students used to study in various fields. They have to read

different subjects which are not in their career streams. Therefore they attend college or

universities to get ample knowledge of their field. Universities and colleges have

experienced staff in diverse fields. Everyone is professional in their stream therefore

students gets the opportunity to learn from these persons(professors) various skills in

their stream which is not possible while studying in higher school.

in universities or colleges from where students get exposure and experience to various

problems which they might have to face in their real life while practicing. Like in

dentistry the students have to work on tooth for scaling, wiring etc from which they get

practical exposure.

Moreover universities have huge libraries carrying thousands of books of different

subjects and other study material like fictional, non-fictional, journals, newspapers,

reports which are huge sources of information for the students and teachers.

Various recreational activities are conducted in universities. Sports meet, youth festivals,

Conferences, Seminars, Debates, Declamation contests etc which also helps in getting

new experiences.

As a whole while studying in college or universities students build confidence as a trait in

themselves which is very essential to be successful in life. So I think people attend

college to get exposure, experience, confidence, increased knowledge, career preparation

as a whole.

undeniable high social status; there, studying in university is considered one of the most

important and valuable experiences in one`s life and it has become a drama of people to

attend university. It is true that various benefits can be given why people want to attend

university, but in my opinion, what urges people to do so is the new experience in college

and reasons are given below.

There are numerous new experiences after attending college and I would in here explain a

few of the most important ones. First of all, the procedure of studying impressed us as a

radically different experience. Unlike the serious way of learning in high school, we can

acquire all kinds of knowledge through attending lectures, discussing with classmates or
professor, seeing scientific films. It can be given a concrete example that a history lecture

given by one of my favorite professors. He organized the class in an enjoyable

atmosphere with his satiric remarks. Soon the class seemed to be over almost as soon as it

started. For the first time I found that history could be so interesting.

Another very strong argument for my opinion is that the university provides us with an

enjoyable atmosphere of activities. Associating with different people on campus,

discussing with a variety of people over a sensitive topic and reading in the quiet library

can strongly shape us inclination,mature our thoughts, wide our horizon and enrich our

personality. These experiences are more important than the limited knowledge obtained

in your textbooks. And if you lose the opportunity to enter college or university,you

never understand why so many people desire for campus life. How regretful it would be!

So as I see it, though university can also provide us with career preparation and increased

knowledge,they can be obtained by other means. However, the new experience on

campus is a unique aspect of the campus culture. If we want our lives in university

unforgettable,cherishing the new experience provides the key.

Essay 6 Topic 1 Why go to university?

People study in college or university for many different reasons. I think the most

important reason is to gain more knowledge and learn more skills. Of course, there are

also many other reasons that people study in college such as to get more friends, and

increase one`s self-confidence.

These days, most jobs require people who are educated and have good job skills.

Therefore, the people who want a good job have to study hard and at least graduate with a

high education. Furthermore, as technology advances all over the world, more and more

In today`s society, people need more knowledge and skills to be adapted. The university

and college study is a good way to achieve this.

There are many advantages to a college or university education. Some students attend

college or university for acquiring both general and specific knowledge, some for

preparing a chosen career and some for developing independence and exploring new

experiences. All of these are valuable goals to achieve,but it is my belief that most

students view higher education as a wonderful tool in career preparation.

With the rapid development of new technology,we need much more knowledge than

before to start a career. In a competitive job market,thousands of people are out of work

and millions of people are searching for jobs everyday. Therefore, a practical education

which is relevant to their future careers,are very important. Furthermore, higher education

is a big investment and so most students want to get all they can out of it.

Of course, college is a ideal place to get broad knowledge and new experiences in many

aspects such as the detailed teaching plan which we can follow, the experienced

professors from whom we can learn a lot,many classmates who work with us and the

most important one which is the plenty of time to study. However, in today competitive

world the pursuit of increasing knowledge must be balanced with the pursuit of the more

practical goals.

that knowledge is safety, that knowledge is happiness. ?That is why I think most students

pursue higher education in order to prepare for their future careers.

Essay 8 Topic 1 Why go to university?

People attend colleges and universities for many different reasons. For some, the most

important things while studying in college is the new knowledge they acquire as it would

be useful for their future career. Others go to college primarily because of the new

friendships they will gain there and the opportunity to learn whatever they are interested

in instead of what they are made to by their parents or society. In my opinion, in most

cases career preparation is the main stimulus to students to enroll in a college or

university.

First of all, with a closer analysis of the various reasons to attend college, one may come
to the conclusion that they are interconnected. Let us consider the eventual desire of a

student to make new friendships. I believe that it, alone, cannot be essential enough for a

person to spend two or four years of his/ her life studying somewhere and paying for that

at the same time. However, new friendships may also mean future career partners and

people with whom one may work and exchange knowledge and experience.

Second comes peoples` attempt to have exciting experiences that the college environment

could provide as for many students going to college means leaving their home town and

starting a new life where they are responsible for themselves. Undoubtedly, living away

from one`s family affects his/her ability to take care of him/herself and that person may

even have to work to get money for college tuition. Thus, people learn to be more self-

sufficient and dealing with different situations may be helpful for their career preparation.

Last but not least, specialized knowledge on the field of study a person is most interested

in as well as the desire to earn as much as possible by applying that knowledge, are two

things that play a major role in one`s decision to attend a college or university. Nowadays

it is essential for a good employee to have good education and working skills. So, if one

wants to qualify in a certain area or start his/her own business, the academic preparation a

college could provide in needed.

For all these reasons, I believe that career preparation is what urges so many people

around the world to attend in situations like colleges and universities.

Essay 9 Topic 1 Why go to university?

In spite of the fact that many people believe that it is not useful for them to attend

university or college, I am convinced that receiving higher education at university or

college serve as the best choice to the majority of people. I will support my will through

the following reasons.

future careers. By attending colleges or university, people have many opportunities to

participate in a co-op program, which are beneficial to their career preparation. For

instance, when some students are graduating from school, the business school of the

University of Toronto provides them a co-op program with many large companies such

as IBM and CIBC. In this program, students not only learn how to get along with

customers but also understand the way to do various transactions. As a result, most of

them quickly obtain job offers after graduation thanks to the co-op program offered by

the university.

Another reason for my view is that people can increase their knowledge at university or

college. On the one hand, at university, there are a lot of excellent professors who have

significant experience of teaching and the ability to quickly improve the skills of people.

Students will be guaranteed detailed answers from professors if they have any question in

the academic field. On the other hand, plenty of advanced and convenient facilities such

as laboratories and libraries are available in universities. With these excellent facilities, it

would be much easier for people to gain more knowledge.

Last but not least, I believe that new experience can be obtained by people at universities.

People are able to take part in all kinds of extra curricular activities such as soccer games

and students clubs so that their teamwork and leadership abilities are enhanced quickly.

Students can also learn how to socialize with other people by taking part in student

activities. This is very conducive to their future development.

To sum up, based on the three reasons that I presented above, according to what I

elaborated previously as suggested by the three previous reasons. Going to university or

college can bring a lot of advantages to people. Therefore, people prefer to spend their

time in colleges and universities.

Essay 10 Topic 1 Why go to university?

There are millions of universities, academies, colleges and all kinds of educational

institutions around the world. They exist because people need them for one reason or

another. Of course, the major purposes to attend universities are career preparation,
which is very important for many people, increasing of knowledge and getting some new

experiences. I believe that people attend universities and colleges for these and a few

other reasons.

In addition to mentioned above, I would say that young people decide to enter

universities or collages because they understand how important education is. Knowledge

plays essential role in the building of our future. The more knowledge person possesses,

the more interesting his or her life becomes, the more possibilities to find special place in

his or her life appear. It is obvious that to build a career in one or the other field is easier

when you have a university or collage degree. I believe, that thinking about the future and

a desire to achieve a good quality of life lead people to universities.

The other reason for people`s willing to education is a high interest in one particular

subject or another. For example, some of us like history, or any other science, more then

other disciplines and are able to spend hours with checking historical events. It is logical,

that these people would like to carry on studying the subject on a higher level and, which

is very possible, to begin their career in this field. The only way for them to achieve the

goal is studying in collage or university.

The third point of a great interest in all kinds of educational institutions is a possibility to

meet other young and intelligent people. Maybe this is not as essential as mentioned

above, but I can say that there are many people who want to attend universities or

colleges not only to attain knowledge, but also to find new friends or to be a part of a

group with similar interests.

In the end I would say that every person has his or her own reason for studying. The most

important thing to me is, that these reasons have existed for ages and, hopefully, would

exist in the future.
