Student: "I don't need to plan for college.  I already know that I am going to NCSU because I have been a Wolfpack fan my whole life"
Counselor:  "Does NCSU know that you are coming?  Although it is wonderful that you have been a Wolfpack fan your whole life, that does not guarantee you a spot on their roster.  It is important to plan and research colleges because your dream school may not even offer the major that you need to obtain the career that you are aspiring to be."
