Attention all seniors! Welcome back from a summer that I hope you found to be both relaxing and enriching. I trust that in addition to soaking up the sun and seeing another part of the world, whether it be a foreign country or the inner workings of a company, you also began at least preliminary work on your college applications. Congratulations to those of you who may even have one or two applications under your belts!

While you’re certainly entitled to celebrate the completion of your applications, don’t fall prey to treating senior year like one long party. Beware of the dreaded disease called “senioritis,” an unofficial yet highly contagious case of “slacking off” that plagues many high school seniors. The college you choose will eventually receive your final semester grades and if they are significantly lower than the rest of your transcript, it could jeopardize your offer of admission. All college acceptance letters clearly state that your offer is contingent on your maintaining the same level of academic and personal excellence that made you such a strong applicant in the first place. So whatever you do, don’t slack off, either academically or personally. Don’t give them any reason to change their minds. In fact, senior year provides a crucial opportunity to prove that you can handle the rigors of a selective college. I am often asked the question, “Can I drop a course or take an easier load senior year? Haven’t I already proved myself enough through my junior year?” The answer, unfortunately, is no. Senior year should actually be your most rigorous academic year yet—if anything, we recommend stepping up the number of honors and AP classes. Senior year is also a time to think about studying for an AP independently. By self-studying for an AP exam, you can demonstrate an extra commitment to your area of interest that will be impressive to colleges. Additionally, you have much more freedom to pursue study in a subject area that truly interests you.

Here’s an interesting scenario: We had a student last year who applied to her #1 choice, Harvard, through their Single-Choice Early Action option. She had actually lightened her courseload senior year: Despite the fact that English was her passion and her strength area, she decided to drop English altogether during her senior year, having already fulfilled her high school’s English requirements. She was deferred into Harvard’s regular applicant pool, left to wait until April for the final word.

The agony of waiting for her decision grew more and more intense. She realized she had to step it up academically, especially during her second semester. She worked as hard as she possibly could on her grades and even started an independent reading project during which she read approximately 30 novels from the Western canon on her own. In April of her senior year, she found out she had been put on Harvard’s waitlist. Clearly, Harvard had wanted to see her end-of-year final grades to make sure she was keeping up academically and that she had done well on her AP exam for her AB Calculus course. When she heard the news that she had been waitlisted, she sent Harvard a letter explaining her independent reading project and listing everything she had read. When her transcript scores came back—she received straight A’s and A-‘s on her finals and 5’s on her APs—Harvard finally let her know, in mid-July, that she had been accepted. This could happen to you.

Believe me, I know the allure of a “senior slide.” I know how much pressure there is to let loose and have fun. Another counselor shared a story with me—by the way, we do not let this happen to IvyWise students!—about a student from a prestigious preparatory school who applied early decision to Duke. He was accepted, although they were concerned about a B- he was getting in calculus. They even warned him, telling him and his high school college counselor it was important that he do something about it. But he didn’t listen. In fact, he became cavalier after getting in and let his grade slide even further to a D.

Later that spring, Duke rescinded its offer of admission. Needless to say, the student was devastated. His parents were none too happy either. Since he had not applied anywhere else, the student ended up taking the year off to work. He retook calculus, got an A, reapplied to Duke, and got in. This may sound harsh, but Duke knew what it was doing. Anyone who would pull a stunt like that is clearly not mature enough to go to college. A very humbling year later, the student finally took his first step onto the Duke campus, a bit older and a whole lot wise. Again, all I can do is ask you to envision that same first step onto the campus of your dreams. It is a moment of ultimate freedom. You are finally an adult in the eyes of the world. You have your entire future at your feet. Don’t mess that up.

In summary, once you have turned in all your application materials, beware of the dreaded “senioritis.” Colleges will be receiving your final transcripts and any irregularities in either academic or personal performance could force a college to rescind its offer of admission. Just remember this time-honored truth: a little hard work now will pay big dividends later as you take that first step onto the college campus of your dreams.

It’s not even two weeks into the new semester, and it’s already happened; your professor has just assigned the dreaded research paper. Even though it isn’t due for months, your diligent instructor has already passed out a three-page overview of the assignment and directed the class to choose a topic.

Rather than sitting on your hands and doing the minimum amount of work necessary to meet her deadlines, you’ve decided to get a jump start on your paper. There’s just one problem: you have no idea what your professor is asking you to do!

Of course, it’s understood that she wants to see a ten-page report on her desk exactly one week before the final, but beyond that, you’re stumped. What sort of sources do you need? Does she want your opinion on the subject, or just the facts? What to write about?!

Before you get too excited, take a deep breath and fish that assignment out of your backpack. Most everything you need to know is in this document. The rest you can either infer or hear straight from the horse’s mouth (the horse would be your professor, no disrespect intended!).

Requirements are often stated or implied in any handouts you receive on the paper. Pay close attention to the language and wording in the handouts - this will help you understand your professor’s expectations. The technical specifications are usually clearly spelled out - minimum and maximum length, margins, font style and size, spacing, etc.

You don’t need to worry about most of these minute details until later, though, so you can set them aside for now. However, make a mental note of the minimum and maximum required length. The length of the paper will help determine the scope of your topic - the shorter the paper, the more limited you must be in your discussion.

That’s not to suggest that you must choose a very narrow, highly specific topic right away. Quite the contrary! Your initial topic choice will be very broad in scope, and you’ll gradually whittle it down as you progress through the research process. At this early point, you simply don’t know enough about your subject to describe it in detail.

In addition to the technical details, you will need to look beyond the clearly stated specifications so that you can identify the content that your professor is expecting from you. This isn’t high school, so your professor will very rarely want just a summary, lacking in inquiry and devoid of any analysis. Most likely, you will be asked to present an argument and support it with evidence. Rather than regurgitating what you’ve read, you’ll be expected to digest the viewpoints of several different scholars and articulate your own analysis of the topic.

There are many different approaches you can take when writing a research paper, along with an infinite number of topical choices. As such, you’ll need to look for keywords in your handouts to determine what type of approach your professor would like you to take, as well as clues as to appropriate topic selections:

* Does your professor single out any one individual, event, idea, or theory that your paper should address? [Keep an eye out for words or phrases that your class will study during the semester.]

* Does she offer a number of topics for you to choose from? [The words “and/or” are good indicators that your professor is offering more than one option.]

* Does your professor specifically ask for your personal viewpoint, or does she want a scholarly analysis of the facts? [Phrases such as “explain your position” and “what’s your opinion?” signify that she’d like you to editorialize a bit.]

What if your professor doesn’t offer any of the above clues? Should you get a frustratingly vague assignment, don’t panic! While it may prove more difficult to choose a topic, such an assignment also offers you the opportunity to flex your creative muscles and write about a subject that interests you! Take a look at your textbook; pay special attention to the index and table of contents. Browse around until you find an issue which appeals to you. As long as it’s in your course’s text, it’s probably fair game for your paper.

Certainly, it is always a good idea to run the idea by your professor before getting too involved. Students may be hesitant to meet with their professors, for fear that it makes them look “dumb” or “ignorant.” Yet, professors generally welcome questions; they view them as a sign that you are involved in class and interested in the material. So go ahead - pick a topic, schedule a meeting, and then hit the stacks!

Just a few short years ago, the idea of taking a college course through the Internet was something online “techies” considered. Now that people realize how convenience it is to take a class without leaving home, more and more people are taking advantage of using their computer to learn.

But while the technology used for online classes is so simple just about anyone can become an online student, you should ask yourself the following 5 questions first – and save yourself a lot of stress!

1) Do you have the time?

Many people think – mistakenly – that online courses are “easier” than traditional campus classes. But most online classes require regular participation. So, you must have the time to “log on” to your course several times each week, complete the assignments and do your homework, and interact with the other students.

All of this takes time…and, you have to account for the time you would normally have spent in the classroom. If you have the time, you will find taking an online class to be very convenient!

2) Do you have the discipline?

Sure, most online classes don’t require you to be on the computer at a specific time (although some do). So it is up to you to make sure you check in on your class several times each week. With a busy work schedule, sports, hobbies, housework, kids, it’s easy to put your class low on your priority list. And that could mean big trouble when it comes time to get your grade.

It’s not the teacher’s job to remind you to keep up with your work – that’s your responsibility. A simple way to make this work is to create your own schedule, so each week you know exactly when it’s time to “go to class”!

3) Do you have the money?

While there are many free or low-cost online “self help” courses available, college courses almost always cost the same whether you take them on-campus, or online. Colleges have to buy the software, train their faculty, and offer student services after hours – so expecting online courses to be less expensive is not reasonable.

On the other hand, the same financial aid is often available for online classes, just as with campus classes. So, money should not stop any student from furthering their education!

4) Do you have the right technical skills?

Fortunately, you don’t have to be a computer “genius” to take an online class. The technology has become very simple for students and teachers to use, so that students who can “surf the Internet” and use email usually have the necessary technical skills.

Before getting started, the school offering the course should have a sample course, tutorial, or other training to help you determine if there are any skills you need to learn, so you can become a successful online student!

5) Do you have the right computer equipment?

Since most online classes are taught through the Internet, students usually don’t need any special computer equipment. However, most online classes require students to have reliable access to the Internet, an email account (and the knowledge to use it), a word processor (such as Microsoft Word), and antivirus software. Check with your school to see if there are any other requirements.

A high speed internet connection is usually not required, but if instructors use graphics, videos, audio lectures, or other big files, a high speed connection (such as DSL or cable) will help you open the files, and do you work, more efficiently!

Are you ready now to take your first online class? Then it’s time to contact your local college, or search the internet for an online class directory, and see what online courses you can take!

With every passing day new discoveries are made and the scope of information is increasing with prospects that it is becoming difficult for humans to handle information efficiently thus resulting in e-cheating and plagiarism.

Plagiarism can be defined as the deliberate use of another persons work with reference to your name without acknowledging the original source. This is evaluated as cheating as one is trying to take credit for someone else’s work. However taking references from someone else’s work and mentioning his/her name on each line copied as it is, is not part of plagiarism. It is called in text citation.

Plagiarism is becoming really common these days in assessments that students submit for their college work. This is considered as a serious offence as attempt like this undermines the value of college degrees. It has been until recently that the managements have decided to impose harsh penalties on students who are found guilty of plagiarism.

Ways to Combat Plagiarism

In order to avoid plagiarism, several universities and schools have started using anti plagiarism software’s and other electronic methods to detect plagiarism that can detect similarities and frequencies of words and phrases. In other schools the management also keeps track of the work previously submitted by students in order to ensure that the work is not copied from earlier years.

In order to avoid plagiarism students are nowadays made to sign statements in which they accept that the work they have submitted, is their own and the contribution from other sources has been properly acknowledged. Because that’s what being in a community is all about, learning together and cooperating such gestures make the students realize the importance of their acts and portray that the management is vigilant about their work and that plagiarism or e-cheating can get them into trouble.

The central point is that when one is producing a piece of work that would be evaluated, one must entirely cite his own work, written by him in his own words and containing his own ideas, interpretations, approaches etc. in case the ideas and words have been copied from someone else then it should be stated clearly with proper reference. Precisely its easy for a person to avoid plagiarism, all what matters is that one should put his/her own effort into the material he submits for assignment. Students who deceive are more likely to become white collar criminal thus depriving the hard workers from achieving their goal.

Conclusion

Fighting plagiarism and e-cheating has become very essential in these times especially because text from all across the globe can be viewed through internet. People who fake someone else’s work as their own must be caught because with purloining someone’s hard work they may pass in their degrees and probably get jobs, but they will have difficulty once they enter into their professional lives. Secondly with vigilant software working to catch plagiarism, students with real aptitude will come out in the light and the carefree attitude towards studies could be warned against.

If you’re considering going to university, there is a strong chance that you’re also contemplating taking out a student loan to fund your university expenses. Student loans don’t have to equate to student debt and if you plan your finances, it is possible to get by without student loans and possibly even profit from them. There are many sites on the internet which provide downloadable student finance guides and online advice on how best to manage your finances. Moneynet offers a comprehensive student finance guide whilst the money section on support4learning is also a popular internet resource.

The first step to avoid financial dependence on a student loan is to consider taking a gap year to gain experience and earn money. This is a great opportunity to start saving for university and will give you funds to cover accommodation and bills without tapping into your student loan.

In terms of managing your personal finances, you could open up a notice savings account and invest your gap year earnings – alongside a student loan, accruing interest on the total amount, but being disciplined so that you only ever tuck into your savings – not the loan itself.

If you’re comfortable that you can timetable it – you might consider a part-time job to help finance your studies, using your income to cover the majority of your expenses so that you can leave your bank savings alone. There will be times when you may have to make a withdrawal from your savings account, but if you leave the capital there as long as possible – the more money you will make.

If you’re concerned about getting the maximum amount of interest on your loan, you could try doing a savings comparison search on the internet. Sites such as moneynet.co.uk ( http://www.moneynet.co.uk/banking-saving/index.shtml ) and reviewcentre.com ( http://www.reviewcentre.com/products2312.html ) allow you to compare different accounts alongside each other.

If you keep a tight grip on your finances, then it is likely that you will be in a strong position to pay off your loans when you graduate. Whilst studying, you might also be interested in conducting price comparison research for insurance and current accounts to ensure you’re getting the best deals. Don’t be seduced by high street offers of freshers’ fair promotions – collect as much information as you can, so you can make an informed financial decision. It’s also worth setting yourself up with online accounts which you manage through an account aggregation tool. Account aggregation allows you to manage your money online and can save you time, foot leather and bank charges. If you want to find out more about account aggregation, visit the Channel 4 website which offers a detailed guide. ( http://www.channel4.com/4money/banking/features/account_aggregation_161204.html )

Here are some tips that will help you survive and thrive during your art school adventure.

Make the most of your education
Attend every art class, and be on time. Keep your nose to the grindstone and do the best work you can do. Don’t wait till the last minute to do homework assignments. You are building the foundation upon which the rest of your life will be built. Make it a solid one! Be sure to get plenty of sleep. Get to bed early on school days and let your hair down on the weekends.

Be unique
Push your creative boundaries. Be careful not to plagiarize or reproduce anyone else’s work. Don’t be afraid of using up your creativity. The more work you produce, the more creative you will become.

Your portfolio
Always be thinking about building your portfolio. Work on each assignment as if it will end up in your portfolio. Push yourself to be the best you can be and don’t settle for mediocrity. Try to make each piece better than the last.

Purchased used textbooks if you can
Textbooks are one of the most expensive purchases you will make while in art school. Buy used textbooks if you can, as they are much less expensive. Sell the textbooks you don’t need.

Scholarships
Keep searching and applying for scholarships. Apply for scholarships for each term. Every little bit of extra money towards tuition will make a huge difference, especially if you have student loans to deal with.

Get involved
Join student organizations and groups. It is a great way to make new and lasting friendships.

Frugal living
Living frugally and on a budget is essential while you are in college. Make use of your Student ID! Many local shops, theaters, and restaurants offer discounts to students. If you have access to a kitchen, cook your own meals. Wait for sales and clearances before purchasing clothing, or visit store outlets.

Stay healthy
It is easy for college students to put healthy habits aside when the stress of college life mounts. Get plenty of sleep. Taking a nap between study sessions can help you retain the information longer. Eat healthy foods and drink lots of water. Try to exercise every day, even if it’s just going for a walk. Staying healthy will make you feel better and you will be more creative and productive.

While there is always a lot of debate as to whether an online college education is as good as a traditional college education, the answer is really very simple; there are good institutions that offer an online college education and there are bad establishments that offer an online college education. The same holds true for traditional college degree programs.

So, just as when you are looking for an offline course, you need to do the same kind of your research when you are looking for the best place to pursue an online college education.

Of course, you normally won’t care where the college is located unless part of the online program involves off-line meetings. Usually the physical location just doesn’t matter. However, a lot of the other points that you would consider before attending a traditional offline college or university should also be considered before you enroll with any organization offering an online college education.

The growth in the numbers of people pursuing an online college education has led to increased competition among institutions to attract students. The best way to assess the credibility of a site advertising that they have the best online college education is to ask about the accreditation of its courses. Accreditation means that some governing body for a particular field has endorsed the course. This can be extremely important in helping you to decide who to trust with your online college education. If a course is not accredited then you need to find out why.

There may be a number of courses that have not yet received accreditation from an appropriate association or governing body but still offer a good online college education. For example, the establishment may have applied for accreditation but not yet been assessed. In that case you can actually check with the particular accrediting agency to be certain that they actually are in the process of assessing the application for accreditation. Another reason may be that there is no appropriate accrediting body for a course. This is less likely but, nevertheless, could be a valid reason and doesn’t necessarily indicate that the course offered is not going to be worth taking to advance your online college education.

If, however, you find that the online college education institution has been refused accreditation, then they are likely to try to tell you that accreditation is not important. And that simply isn’t true. An online college education from a non-accredited institution is not going to be viewed as positively as one from an accredited establishment. Choose where you go to get your online college education with care to ensure that you are not wasting your time and money by having a nearly worthless qualification.

Another factor related to accreditation has to do with professions requiring some form of governmental license or certification. You need to be certain that any college degree or other course certification will be acceptable to whatever licensing body has authority over the profession in the location you live and work in. For example, a course which is accepted in one state, may not be accepted by the authorities in another state.

You need to think of the online college education arena as a marketplace. You are the consumer and as in any marketplace, you need to check the quality of the product and the ‘merchant’ according to the circumstances that apply to you and your area of study. While this may seem like a lot of work at times, it is your future, your time and your money that are involved. So take a little extra time and verify the value of any online college program (or any type of online learning) that you are considering.

We certainly do not need to look back at the controversial issues to understand the scopes of the problem; we have got a lot of them now. Nevertheless, it might be useful sometimes, to recall how these issues can be resolved in clear and transparent way.

Consider, for example the fight for the rights of the animals. In 1992 in Michigan there were attacks on the animal laboratory at Michigan State University. Another laboratory at the Washington State University suffered from the attacks as well. Some research offices were seriously damaged in the acts of arson in Utah. There were controversies, and these controversies exist now- despite the fact that more than fifteen years have passed, there is still a huge disagreement between those animals rights activists who claim that computer simulations are as good as animal research, and those scientists who insist that the researches on the animals are indispensable for the furtherance of their scientific work.

Undoubtedly, according to many scientists the animals are really indispensable for their research. After all they are used to help humans in their grapple against mortal and incurable diseases. For example pigs are used in the researches on diabetes and vascular diseases, dogs are used s, as steadfast and ones of the most reliable companions for people with disabilities; they play crucial, and sometimes vital role in the law enforcement agencies, other examples can be easily provided to support the assertions of scientists that animals can be used to assist people. Yet, nevertheless, these facts can hardly convince animal activists.

Lorraine Hough office in 1992 took the role of leader in the fighting against growing public antipathy to the scientists who conducted the research on the animals. According to Gallup Poll 2 of 3 American teenagers supported the rights of the animals. Hough was the director of The Texas Society for Biomedical Research.

Thus the society decided to launch bold and interesting experiment- it announced the essay contest for school children “ Why animals are important to Biomedical research.” Yet, despite the fact that the company provided financial incentive –more than $250 and $500 dollars in prizes, it was nevertheless difficult to find the participants.

Today this is an annual content in the Texas Society of Biomedical Research. Certainly, it is not easy to answer the question whether the experiments on the animals are really painful and intolerable for them. What is certain, that unless the scientists have found the cure to the innumerable human diseases-the experiments on the animals will continue and the controversies that surround them will not abate.

How can the society resolve this strange and controversial problem? Clearly the arsons and vandalism are not the best options. Certainly, the information and discussion are the best steps that should be taken. Essays and research papers that can highlight this problem can answer impartially and objectively to the question that concerns so many activists and scientists all over the world.

The essays designed exclusively by highly skilled and professional writers who have gained vast experience in the research of the experiments on the animals and their consequences. The outstanding highly argumentative research provides you with incredible and unique highlight of the existing problem, allow you to understand more clearly the issue that has already become irresolvable for so many people.

Have you ever asked yourself why you want an online degree? There are many reasons people make the effort to get an online degree and even as an adult whilst it may seem unrealistic it is possible.

Perhaps you are tired of you existing routine, fed up with your job and would like to try something totally different. Perhaps you want a better job, something with more prestige, more responsibility and hopefully more money! These are all good reasons to pursue higher education.

Not everyone has job and career related reasons for wanting an online degree, education is beneficial even if it is only for the sake of learning. We have all heard the saying that knowledge is power and the more you know the easier time you will have in life.

Getting a bachelors degree online can be a fast and easy way to further your career but before you enroll, there are a few important things you need to know.

There are two things you should have before seeking an online degree, one is the commitment to the task and the other is a goal to aim for. Gaining an online degree is hard work and without the commitment and a goal or reason for wanting it it would be very easy to give up.

Most individuals can complete their online bachelors degree in as little as three years. If you have prior college credits to transfer or relevant work history to consider, then you can complete a degree course in as little as six months.

Set a goal and stick to it no matter what, you are the only person you should try to impress.

Picture yourself with your degree in hand, imagine how you will feel and how your loved ones will feel too. Do you like the picture you can see? A smarter, more educated person; somebody sought after in the workplace and envied by your friends. If you like this vision commit it to memory and when the going gets tough refer to it and the each day you complete will bring you closer to your online degree
