I feel like I am speaking for a lot of people when I say there are many reasons why college is better than high school. From the staying up as late as you want to not having class all day, I don't miss high school at all and here are the top-five reasons why.

1. You Don't Have To Sit In Class For Eight Hours A Day

College is great because you don't have class all day everyday. You can mostly choose when your classes are and this is the best thing ever. If you want to have class at 11am everyday, you can. If you want to have 8 a.m. classes and have your afternoons off, you can. Making your own schedule is one of the best perks of college.

2. Freedom

By freedom I mean a lot of different things. Freedom to stay up as late as you want, freedom to go where you want, and freedom to be who you want. In high school, you don't always have the luxury of freedom. In college, you can express yourself however you want and that's such a great thing.

3. No Dress Code, I Repeat, No Dress Code

One of the best things about college is that there is no dress code. In high school, you always get in trouble for wearing tank tops and shorts that are too short, but in college, nobody cares. You can either dress like you are going clubbing or wear the biggest t-shirt you can find with a pair of sweat pants, I suggest the second option.

4. You Can Sleep Anytime And Anywhere

In college, you learn to sleep whenever and wherever you can. In high school, if you fell asleep in class, you could be punished. In college, the professors don't care because you are in charge of your education. You are also so tired all the time that you can fall asleep in the most random places, like the library bean bags or benches on campus.

5. Never A Dull Moment

In high school, you were always bored on weekends and never had many fun things to do, especially if your friends were busy. In college, there is always something going on, whether it be going out or attending free campus events, there truly is never a dull moment. You also know so many people that you really can always find someone to hang out with.

Now, don't get me wrong, high school was a awkwardly fun time, but I would never go back. College holds so many opportunities, like joining a sorority or choosing what you want to do for the rest of your life that once you leave high school you will never want to go back.
