What do incoming freshman need to know about college academics?

How financial aid can be lost if their grades slip. Work with an advisor to make sure all necessary subjects are taken so that receiving a degree in your major won’t take more than 4 yrs. You need to be familiar with exactly who’s teaching what & when, if you want to study under a particular professor. Advance planning is of the utmost importance so choosing class schedules can be a breeze. It all goes back to one of my favorite adages: Plan your work, work your plan. Nobody plans to fail, but too many fail to plan!
