  4. The six college experiences that determine whether you thrive as an adult

The six college experiences that determine whether you thrive as an adult

#bachelor #bestbachelor #Japan #business #BBA

Many of us think the college or university we attend matters a lot. In Japan this has held true for a long time.

If we go to Harvard, or Oxford, we will be happier, smarter, richer and land a dream job.

Stanford’s Graduate School of Education, believes this thinking is almost entirely wrong.

“It appears that what students do in college is far more important than the type of institution they attend,”


"Best fit" is a term that is now gaining traction amongst high school counsellors to advise students to choose a school that matches their personality more closely.

The report from Stanford highlights that time studying results in better student learning. Effort put into coursework results in better subject-matter understanding and general knowledge.

Engagement with coursework increases curiosity, creativity and initiative, the more and the more effectively students study, the better they do in their courses.

Better learning, is associated with better studying, not brand-name colleges.


The report from Stanford compiles six college experiences that have an impact on how fulfilled employees feel later:

  1. Taking a course with a professor who makes learning exciting
  2. Working with professors who care about students professionally
  3. Finding a mentor who encourages students to follow personal goals
  4. Working on a project across several semesters
  5. Participating in an internship that applies classroom learning
  6. Being active in extracurricular activities
These experiences are where NUCB's strengths lies, especially as a business school.

Our curriculum is forward thinking and focused on active learning to be heavily participant based.

We have internships built into the 4-year program and have an abundance of extracurricular activities at our Nisshin Nagakute campus.

It is great to see this movement towards finding the right home for students and best fit should always be a priority for students to be happy.
