Steve Jobs dropped out of Reed College after a semester.

The late Apple cofounder enrolled in Reed College in Portland, Oregon, in 1972, but his tenure lasted only one semester, according to CNN. After dropping out, Jobs worked as a video game designer for Atari and then backpacked through India.

When he returned, he teamed up with high school friend Steve Wozniak. By 1975, the duo had started to work on the first Apple product in the Jobs family garage. The Apple 1 was released in 1976.
