May 1st is known as College Decision Day. It’s the deadline for high school seniors to choose which college they will attend in the fall. Students show off their school choice by wearing college shirts, posting online, or celebrating with their friends and teachers. It’s a big moment that marks the start of a new chapter in their lives.
This day is important because it’s the result of a lot of hard work. Students have spent years studying, applying to colleges, and thinking about their futures. Some will go to big universities, some to small colleges, and others may choose to take a gap year, join the military, or start a job. All of these choices are special and should be celebrated.
College Decision Day is more than picking a school: it’s about starting your future. No matter the path, May 1st shows that big things are ahead.
