Ave Maria University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Bridget

I wish I would have known about the weather. Florida has the most unforgiving weather but you get use to. Ave Maria is also a few miles away from the nearest city so I wish I would have known about the long drive to go out on weekends.

Carmela

That the next town over is about 40 minutes away.

Claudine

Nothing I am currently trying to attend

Hillary

I wish I had been more aware of the responsibilities here. Education is regarded highly; something I knew when I toured the campus. But it's the extracurriculars-church, choir, sports, etc.- that I had underestimated. Everything needs to be taken seriously while you enjoy it; nothing should be brushed off or taken lightly.

Arielle

You can't trust everyone, and you are responsible for your own growth socially.
