Open Admission Policy

I feel open enrollment is a good thing. I feel it’s a good thing because it let’s whoever wants an education get an education. I also feel it’s a good thing because it allows people with a GED have a second chance, not everyone may have chosen the right path at one point in their life. Another thing is I don’t feel that open enrollment takes money from the ones that won’t succeed. I feel it’s up to a student to determine how well they do during their time at a college. There could also be other contributing factors on how well a student may or may not do. I have a GED because I at one point didn’t finish high school and I want to succeed more than ever in college and I want to get a degree. It can be very challenging at times and you personally have to want to do it. But on the other hand I suffer from severe depression and at times that can get in the way of my studies but I try my best. Some reasons why others might think open enrollment is not a good thing is lowering of their standards but everyone is entitled to an education so why deny someone and like you had said knowingly taking money from the ones who are going to not succeed in their time in college. Another reason is someone might feel they worked really hard to accomplish the grades they did and then you have someone who slacked or has a GED.
