What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
The most important advice I would give is to first speak the professors one on one. If you didn't get along with them when you met them, then you never will. Talk to the students. Don't just talk to the people that look like your friends from highschool, but pick random people and ask them there opinion. Someone will give you the truth about the school. Pay attention to the students attitudes walking around. Ask yourself if you could fit in there. Most people go away to college far from home, so you have to make sure that the place you are going to go can become a home away from home.

The best thing about A-B, to me, is probably where it is located. Philippi, WV is a small town where it seems like everybody knows everybody. Even though there isn't a lot to do outside of campus, the town has a friendly atmosphere, and the fact that the school isn't in a huge city with tons of places to go means that there are less distractions when it comes time to study. However, if one finds oneself with some free time, Philippi is within driving distance of many bigger cities that have more to do and see.

I understand what college is all about in many ways; from having good grade to dropping a class and retaking. I learned there are many people who view life in different ways here at ABU. I fall under the stereotype of another football who does not want to be serious however I refuse to fail here. There are many different types of professors here some look to help past enough while others make it hard on you. Overall I like the school because of football however, the school is very expensive and scholarships are the best things to hope for.
