be like "I want to go to this college instead. but that doesnt mean i dont want to cancel our friendship. i want to keep in touch with you guys always and have reunions frequently (if you can)" and if they really care about you. they will understand and be cool with it. hope i helped. good luck and God bless!

That's how most groups of close friends are, but the truth is that you will eventually have to separate from your friends and get out in world without them. There is a good and badside to that- The bad side is that you have to leave them behind, but the good side is that you get to make new friends on the way. My advice to you is to just be honest and tell your "mates" that you want to do things for yourself, and you have ambitions of your own. I'm sure they will understand or come to understand. They probably have things they want to accomplish on their own as well.

its always nice going to a college with your friends because you know you will always have support there and you will at least know someone.. but you want to do tings for yourself so maybe you could pick a college close to the one they are planning on going to and just explain to them that you want to be more independent. not meaning you dont want to be friends or anything but you want to start having your own life. if they are truely your friends they will understand. It's also hard to get everyone accepted to that one college too. so take that into consideration that everyone might not actually get accepted.

Don't ever let your friends lead your future. I've been taught that you should never go to a specific college just because your friends or lover is going there because college is very different and who's to know if your friendships will actually even last. Then you will be going to that university for nothing! I would tell them your feelings about going to a different school. If they are real friends, they will understand.

So your trying to basically say you don't want to go to the same universary? Alot of friends tell each other stuff like that but they end up getting accepted into diffetent universities. Don't stress about it and if you rrally are stressing, talk to them about it and tell them your feelings.
