What should every freshman at your school know before they start?

In the search for the "right" college, remember to never let anyone influence your decision. You might be most happy with the college when you realize this was perhaps the first major decision YOU make in deciding YOUR future. Also, to make the most of your college experience, I have similar advice. Stick to your ideals or expectations of college. Don't let outside influence decide for you, though this will always be a struggle. Know if you feel like one in thousands someone else feels similarly. Take risks, put yourself out on a limb. Regret stays longer than a moment of embarassment or failure. And prepare for fun and for the future.
