HOW DO COLLEGE LOANS WORK?

Is there anything more fun than learning? We’re not saying that just because we’re a school. It’s actually true that learning is one of the key foundations of all real fun in life.

Think about it. When you’re getting acquainted with a new person at a party, what is the most fun part about it? You really feel it from everything you’re learning about him or her — about another life, another history.

When you’re playing a long, involved game, a lot of the fun is from memorizing all the new terms and game mechanics and understanding the connections between them. It’s the same when you’re learning a new sport or hobby. New connections are physically forming in your brain, and you feel the excitement of growing beyond your old limits.

And it can be extremely fun to learn a new skill in college, knowing that it will improve your career, finances, and the satisfaction you’ll get from your work every day. Learning can be very exciting.
