Tips for Freshmen…
First week of college is coming to an end. Congrats you survived! College isn’t bad after all right? It is awesome. You deserve to be here, you earned it. It might seem overwhelming these first few weeks but well everyone goes through that. It is just a phase and if you know how to navigate through it you will do fine. You might not know what you want to study yet, but guess what, that’s no problem at all. Take as many Gen Eds as you can so you can determine where your strengths lies. You shy, intimidated and feel out of place, well there is lot’s of clubs to join where you can make numerous friends. Get some time off studying and go to all them activities that your RAs have for you.
You are going to miss home pretty bad but there is lots of on campus activities to distract you from that. Remain in constant contact with your folks back home, Skype or Facetime them, it helps sometimes to have a strong support network, I know it did for me. Don’t be scared to approach professors, they are here for you and want to see you succeed. Overall take care of yourself, workout, hike, bike if you have to since the weather is still nice. Have a good semester!
