Continue the game, but pause before you start Freshman Year to answer these questions.
What was your strategy when making these pre-college decisions about taking jobs, buying laptops, selecting dorm supplies, etc?
Your Goal: Make it to graduation and beyond with a reasonable amount of debt to pay back after you graduate. Try not to get burnt out along the way by getting poor grades, not making enough social connections, or running out of happiness (3 bars at the bottom of your screen as you play the game).
What impact do you think GPA and Extracurriculars might have on the college options available to you and how much you will have to pay?
How do you think this decision of where to attend will impact your later success in the game?
Did you get through the whole game? Why or why not?
If you could choose just one, which set of decisions do you think is MOST important to your success in paying for college:
What university you choose to attend
Your purchases to prep for freshman year
The decisions you make during your 4 years of college
The major and career path you follow
Explain your answer.
