Benefits: If you feel trapped in high school because you can't make decisions for yourself. Now it's time to prove to everyone that you know what is best for you. In college, you are free. If you let your ambition guide you, you can go to places you never imagined and do things you never imagined.
Negative effects: For many students, freedom is the only thing that destroys them. If you have the freedom to do great things, you also have the freedom to make bad decisions.
After graduating from high school, my favorite freedom is that I no longer need to go to the bathroom! I hate asking an intern teacher who is still in college and only a few years older than me if I can use the bathroom.
