Changing colleges last minute?
I originally applied to Jackson state university and Mississippi State university, I have done all the Fasfa awards as welll. My final choice was Mississippi state, however, due to family related issues, I will have to attend Jackson state instead, the problem is that I've already accepted the loans and applied for housing. Is it too late to change?
I am MBA graduate from the US. Due to family issues I returned back to India, and now after 2 years experience I want to go back to the US. Going there on a work visa is an issue. What post MBA courses can I apply for in the US?
If your goal is to work and settle in U.S. the u need not necessarily go for post MBA courses. You can choose a masters degree , in a state university may be , which is in expensive and post that you can workFor 3 years on a CPT or move to H1 .Post MBA you can look at p.hd in USA , but admission is competitive , you need to show aptitude for research in management with proof of experience in such a field.
What do I choose between career & family?
Family.If strictly one to choose.And even if it can be managed as well balanced (which is very difficult, mostly).....then give family 51% weightage and career the 49% weightage out of these two.Reason is simple:Only you can look after your family, there are others to look after the work and workplace.(Ex president Kalam sir spoke this, as per media)Many times the two side counter support each other. Family keep you cool and support you in your career / work / job. Again from work side, a better salary or facility supports well.Sometime things go opposite. Family gets irritated from tight schedule or heavy workload of job or simply the person taking more interest in job. Again a bad performance at workplace reduces chances of promotion/ growth and disturbs family again in closed cycle.Inteligent people tend to focus more on job for family support. Smart people tend tp focus more on family to simply continue the job peacefully.Career brings growth, "success", wealth, recognition etc but mostly fails to bring peace, happiness, joy and motivation in life.This is why mostly hard working people are progressive but not as happy as normal working class people having good tuning with family.To best of knowledge and belief, only peace and joy will continue even after life.\Upvote to appreciate.

Is it possible to repeat freshman year in college?
The only way you can erase your freshman year and get a complete do-over is to apply to another university as a new freshman rather than a transfer student using your only high school transcripts and acting as if you haven't been in college the last year. Your degree will be based on only the classes you take there and you need not mention this past failed year to anybody ever again--not to them, not to future employers, not to anybody.
Are modern boarding schools the best choice to send kids to nowadays?
Here in New Zealand, parents who live rurally have to make tough decisions about whether to send their students to boarding school or not. Here are some things to consider;That once you send your child to boarding school, it is like they are leaving home early. You don't really get them back, you are speeding up that process. Be sure that you are ok with that.Parents are the primary educators of their children. Their influence can be huge and positive. By sending your child to boarding school, you will not be chatting around the table about the days events - for example. Be sure that you are okay and happy about this before you send your child to a boarding school.Boarding schools are utilised in very different ways from country to country. I would personally not send my child to a boarding school at all unless I could help it, and it was the best and only option for my child’s achievement and future.You need to speak to someone locally about the schools in your area, and you need to decide what ‘best’ actually means.
Problem Solving: I am facing a terrible problem. It is related to my family. What should I do?
Living in joint family can be a big pain and nuisance - not just for girls but for boys as well. There is constant meddling, interference and thinking about some fictional "khandaan ki izzat". As if, if someone wears a dress or has a girlfriend/ boyfriend then Times of India is going to publish it on front page!Highly idiotic.I can understand your sister's sentiments, but she is just a kid right now and can't think straight or understand the value of compromise.Ideal would be for her to live there for just two years before she heads off to college. But she is likely to be depressed all the time and her grades might suffer (thus impacting her choices for college).Alternatively, can your father live outside of the joint family in Anand in a rented flat for example? Why can't he keep your mom and sister along with him in the cantonment (in Army family quarters?).He can say that he wants to stay away from the rest of the family as your sister is in class X and needs to concentrate fully for XI and XII now.Living separately in Jaipur can also be an option (same reason of preparing for XI and XII can be given).
