COLLEGE. One of the best times in your life. Freshman year is a HUGE transition from high school. Your classes are different, you are no longer at the comfort of your home, you are meeting new people and you’re getting used to the campus. Here are a few tips that I wish I knew at the beginning of my freshman year. I hope this helps make your freshman year a little less stressful!
Three weeks into the semester you’ll regret it.
It’s important to keep every classes syllabus because they have that classes grading scale on it.
You don’t want to be that one freshman that out of control at the party.
It’s best to finish assignments right after class or as soon as possible or you’ll forget to do it.
There’s only so many food options offered, so maybe save one place to try spring semester.
This is completely normal!
It’s true. It looks good on a resume but you’ll have to fine new clubs to join in college.
If you get in the habit of skipping class, you’ll miss notes and most likely do poorly on the test.
Your professor will tell you if you need the book or not, so you’ll save money if you wait until the first day of class.
I recommend setting a timer on your laundry so you are there when it’s done, so other people don’t move it around.
There will probably be around 100+ kids in your lecture. It will be weird at first.
Everyone calls their parents! They miss you too!
The rec is free and always open! This is great especially since you won’t always have the healthiest food available.
It’s a great way to pass time!
You won’t have the same people in all your classes so you won’t always be with someone to sit down and eat with. This is completely normal in college!
Your zip card is the most important thing here. Don’t lose it!
It’s true! You can wear what you want.
You’ll meet a TON of people the first week, but they all won’t stay your friend.
The more involved you are the more people you will meet and the more you’ll feel comfortable here.
You don’t have to agree to do everything.
