 7 Reasons Why Students Drop Out Of College
No one said that going to college would be easy, and many students find out the hard way. There are many contributing
factors that can lead to lack of success. Some are unavoidable; some are, well, just plain irresponsibility. Either way,
dropping out of college can count as a substantial loss in the life of a student. Here are some reasons that may contribute
to the drop-out motivation:

1. A Blind Eye and a Low Expectation of Academic Demand

Once students get into the thickest of their college schedule, they realize that, despite their new independence, the
amount of responsibility that comes with their freedom was not at all what they anticipated. Therefore, they
become burnt-out and discouraged; so they quit, whether or not their grades were lacking.

2. Educational burnout.
While college gives you control and flexibility over your schedule, the hard demanding schedule, challenging
courses, and boatload of homework certainly has turned a lot of students away from the desire to continue.

3. Academic unpreparedness.
Sometimes, high school didn’t really prepare students for college. Other times, students slacked off in high school
and paid the price during their post-secondary years. The high school goal was to pass (so that students could get
into college); in college, it is to succeed.

4. Personal or family issues.

 You may have had an unfortunate illness in the family or you yourself just got totally get stressed out from the
workload. Unfortunately, as life may dictate, unexpected life situations can occur that are of such a serious nature,
the student is forced to come home. Illness or illness of a family member, financial limitations can all contribute to
why a student may be forced to relinquish his or her college education for the time being.

5. Financial constraints.
Tuition costs continue to soar, and scholarships or grants are not always available. Additionally, financial
situations can change from year to year.

6. Too much fun — but not enough education.

Some students take advantage of their friendships, which could put them on academic probation due to suffering
grades or absence in classes.

7. Setting sights on the wrong major.

You may have wanted to be a doctor but after taking several science classes, you decided that you’re rather go into
marketing. Does your school have a marketing major? If not, you’re likely to go elsewhere.

8. No guidance or mentors.
In high school, teachers and counselors were there to guide you, as high school classes are typically smaller than
the entering freshman class. It’s a lot harder to get the personalized attention that you’ve been used to and that
could turn people off quickly.

Drop-Out Prevention
With the exception of situations that drop from the sky, completely out of the student’s hands, everything that I mentioned
above is preventable. I suggest having a mature, realistic expectation of what your first year of college will bring and
persevere through it. Be responsible. Be an adult. Invest well in your future.
