College is a place many things can happen. Some people say that college is a place where you find who you are and that it is also where you get to experience the real world and you get to meet new people and become an adult.

The student will have to learn how to socialize and work hard at the same time. Not only meeting new peers, but new teachers as well.

Some they hit it off right away with people because they are good at making friends. Others it takes a while, might feel excluded from their roommates and be homesick. With that some college students might have a romantic relationship going into college and that will become stressful also. There are many breakups during the beginning of freshman year in college. Many students break up within the first couple months of going to college. Distance, new people and atmosphere change all play a role in this. With that, some people meet new romantic partners and it is stressful going out on dates with new people.

We all know that everyone goes through high school and college. We can compare that college is much more challenging and complex than high school. This is a higher level of learning, thus, requiring more time, effort as well as devotion to studies.
