Is going to a college based on who you know around there a bad thing?
I want to go to University of Toledo. Now I know no one that goes directly to the school or will be going but I do know of people in Toledo. My mom and everyone says that I'm just going for them but I really don't think so. Yes, them being there was a small reason because I don't wanna have to figure out my first year in college with NO familiar faces so I did choose colleges where I knew people there. That's not my reasoning for going because I LOVE UT's Early Childhood Education program and the things you can do like Camp Adventure and things like such. How do I convince people that while the people I know there is a small factor that I AM NOT going just to party with friends.

Tell her that you have researched other schools and you havn't found any with such a great Early Childhood Education program. You also are serious about this and tell her that you are not going to go party because you are focused on school and you WANT to meet new people while at school and start a new life out.
If she/they are still saying your just going for them, then just tell them you will keep your options open (which you should anyway), but Toledo is top on your list because of the program of study.

I really don't think it matters as long as you have the diploma, then you can get a bogus government job where you sit back and do nothing all day while getting paid 80,000 dollars a year
