Temple University Top Questions

Knowing what I know now, I would have done many things differently in high school. My advice to myself would be to take courses from a variety of learning disiciplines in order to expose myself to all possible career paths. I would really emphasize that to myself, because I struggled a little during my freshman year in deciding what to major in. I had no idea what other subject areas were like. Also, many high schools offer business, engineering, and science courses. Even if I originally thought I would not enjoy a course, I would advise myself to take it, because many courses have hidden benefits such as training your analytical abilities. I would also reccomend to myself to take the most advanced courses available and possibly even college courses in high school. Taking advanced courses in high school would have prepared me for the rigorous college courses I am now taking. Lastly, I would have advised myself to get a job while in high school. I think that is very important, because almost every college student I know works while in college. Getting a job while in high school would have prepared me for my college/work career.

I would tell myself that since you are going into a new setting with new people and a new agenda make the best impression that you can. so that even when you leave this school they will remember your name. I would also tell myself to take it slow for the first semester so you can get a feel for the life and also you will not be able to overwhelm yourself like that. Stay focused with your books and try not to procrastinate no matter how good your grade comes out when you do procrastinate. College is also a good time to work on people skills and make friends that will probably be in your life even after you graduate. I would defintely tell myself that even though you won't to focus on your studies, try your best to give yourself a break because if you burn out you are no good to yourself or the people that are teaching you. So have fun sometimes but always make sure you have your priorities in order. Furthermore, don't be embarrassed to go to tutoring because if you need help take full advantage of the help that they provide.

Keysha, I know you're thinking that school is not for you right now and that you were thinking of going to Community College of Philadelphia simply to figure out what you want in life. My advice to you is that you are still young, take your time. CCP allows you to figure out your major without hurting your wallet. Remember what you're good at and where you see yourself in ten or twenty years. Remember to ask for help when you need it and to continuously pursue your degree. There will be bumps, there will be times when financial aid won't give you enough funding. Just remember to persevere. You know the cliches: "anything worth having is worth fighting for" and "it's not where you go but how you get there." These are cliches because they are true. Believe in them and believe in yourself. You're a smart girl that will make smart choices. "The rest is up to you."

I would tell myself to make sure I take the time explore my surroundings. The city has so much to offer and you cannot be consumed by the school work and sports. College is supposed to be the best times of your life! Do not let school work and the pressure to do well take you over from having fun.

I know you think that you know everything, you think that you know what you want to do with your life, but you will change your mind, multiple times. Keep in mind that being independent does not require a distance of 316 miles and a five and a half hour car ride. People that study forty-five minutes from home have independence, and they are close to their loved ones. College is one of the most expensive investments in life, take the free money, go where gives you scholarships; borrow the least amount of money as possible, you will not regret it. Make friends with your roommate, or at the very least, be friendly, because if you don?t, your life will be a living hell. Join clubs, it?s the easiest way to make friends, and it looks good on your resume. Work harder than you think you have to, you will not be disappointed. But most importantly, don?t forget to have fun, life is too short, be lighthearted, stand up for what you believe in, and love everything that you do.

Some advices that I would definitely give myself as a high school senior would be the expectation of a college student. High school compared to college is completely two different ball games. The twelve years spent in school is only minor steps for college. While those twelve years prepared me for college, college itself prepares me for life. Based on my college experience now, I would highly suggest myself to practice studying and have patience. College is not a place to rush things. Unlike high school where I was able to not study for a test and still pass, I am not able to do it here in college. Most importantly, I would tell myself to practice endurance and self-realization. Graduating as top of my class in high school, I underestimated college. Therefore, there were times where I have fallen and got back up, learning the hard way. I want to tell myself that I should always expect the most and realize that something is not over until it is really over.

I would tell myself two things; get a haircut because in retrospect your curly hair doesn't look so great and secondly to take advantage of other opportunities provided by Temple. It is not enough to simply go to class and do well. There are a host of volunteer positions, internships, clubs and other organizations that you should join. Now, I know you will be working full-time your last two years of school which many students do not do, but your freshman year you could participate in at least one other activity. Network more, make more friends in different places, speak in class more, in College you can disagree with the professor and not be punished. But first get a haircut.

I belive that I've been making the right choices since I graduated from high school but an advice will be to always try to make things better and turn negative situations around. Be positive and optimistic because school sometimes can be challenging but it depends on you to change your reality and succeed in life. Never give up and never feel envy about what others have accomplish because you can do it better. Keep in mind on you school, be responsable, organize, enthusiastic and dedicated. Never let people to change your mind or give you advices that are not worth a penny, always trust your heart and keep your head up.

I would look 18 yr-old Dusha in the eyes and tell him plain: You will be a leader of men. Student Leadership is going to beckon you by request of the Dean of Students, answer it! You are going to coast through the courses in your major, in your boredom, you're going to complete enough personal study to have a second major, so do us both a favor and declare a second major! You'll waste your time in three campus jobs, that won't help you raise adequate funds, resulting in you being evicted three times, put more energy into finding work, and don't unpack too often. You're going to be well liked, and accepted by your peers sometimes to your own dismay. You are going to fall in love twice, the first girl is going to rip your heart out but it makes you a better person; so don't avoid it, and the second girl will be the best influence in your life . You meet her at a community service event so stay active. Then at the end I'd say: Congratulations on the fraternity you started. Second largest chapter on campus!

Don't stress out!! Bring extra money because there are alot of extra things you will end up doing you would not expect doing like going to the city frequently and eating out. Try to join extra-curricular activities, clubs, or attend parties because these are where you meet some of your greatest college buddies. Get to know your professor. Be prepared to read numerous amounts of text and writing essays. When you read, write things down. Don't just read something all the way through and expect to remember everything. The work is different than high school, especially the exams. The exams are not primarily memory based but actually understanding the material and connecting them together to answer questions. DO NOT PROCRASTINATE!! Worst thing to do is an all-nighter. It's really stressful and unhealthy. Try to buy used books early because buying new books are a waste. Also, apply for scholarships. Get to know people around you. The more friends you have, the easier and exciting college will be!

I would tell myself that Greek Life is not all about the stereotpes you see on television or in the movies. I have joined a fraternity and it is one of the best choices. I would tell myself the gap year program I did would be filled with challenges but ultimately will lead you to the best school for you. The school you end up at is liberal minded, gives you many opportunities to be an activist and is an incredible fit for you. The transition will not be difficult at all because of your gap year program you will be prepared and already are for the workload at this school.

Japan is definitely a fun place to be and you will enjoy it, but you'll eventually grow weary and feel the need to transfer. The best parts of TUJ is the location and the majority of the professors. Though it's close to home, it will still be incredibly easy to become homesick. You should focus the most on learning Japanese in order to make the transition as painless as possible. Most people are real and friendly, though you will not mesh with all of them as easily and won't have as much in common with them as back home; nonetheless, you'll easily make friends. It's easy to become lazy and neglect aspects of life that Mom was always on your back about--cleaning, laundry, and hygiene, for example--but you'll learn to become responsible for yourself and pay the bills, vacuum the floor, do your dishes, and make your meals. Try to avoid becoming nocturnal; daylight is the best and only time to see some of the most amazing parts of Tokyo! Your interests, habits, and friends will inevitably change, so accept it and make the most of the situation you're in.

I think if I would trry to talk my self into going to college right after graduatin high school and not take two years off before returning to school. At the time, as a high school senior I was happy that I was done with school and thought I would just learn a trade or something and pursue that as a career, but that two years also gave me an opportunity to really think about what I wanted to go back to school for. If I would have been forced to make a decision right after high school about what I wanted to study in college I may have ened up wasting money as well as valuable time. So while looking back I wish I could could have started college two years earlier I must say I do not regret my decision to take some time to truly consider the career I wanted to pursue rather than just taking classes because college was just the next step in life.

If I can go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior, knowing what I know about college life and making transitions, I would advice myself to take advantage of AP courses because they really do prepare you for the type of workload you will receive as a college student, and they also impress colleges during the senior application process. I would then tell myself to prepare for the SATs effectively by taking advantage of prep courses my high school offered after school and also take the SATs more than once, despite the fact that it is a very long test. I would also advice myself to wait for all my acceptances before making a decision and picking the school that fits me best financially after reviewing all financial aid packages, rather than going by the popularity of a school. Last but not least, I would advice myself to take advantage of all opportunities a student receives throughout high school years, such as trips, extracurricular activities, networking, programs, scholarships, internships, and leadership roles because theses opportunities will shape a student to be extremely involved academically and socially in the future.

Time management is key to success in collegal studies.

I would advise senior year me to not stress as much about transitioning to college life because it was not as scary as I thought it would be. Temple services were available to assist me with any problems or questions I had. Note taking is key; so pay more attention to key words and phrases rather than the whole sentence. Eight hours of sleep is necessary and a good breakfast because without it I need to take naps and then I waste more time that I could be doing something more productive. While I'd like college to be all about socializing, I have to realize that i am here for a purpose, so resist temptations and do not over socialize and blow off school work.

I would advise that I stay focused and to try and get the most out of the campus and life around it. I would also tell myself to push for goals I never even thought of because anything is possible if you put your mind to it.

College is tough because the main factor is money. Do not waste your time procrastinating and waiting for graduation-- APPLY FOR SCHOLARSHIPS! College is also about time management, which I have learned to master very well in high school. It is all about determination and keeping your focus, if you lose focus it is your own fault. There is no time to make up for work since semesters are so short, so do not slack off. Also, take advantage of all the opportunities and programs at your university because they open up a lot of doors for you and life is about taking advantage of what you can. You already pay for it, so you might as well go for it. Take chances and go for it-- it never shames you to want to expand your knowledge.

Knowing now how expensive college can be, one piece of advice I would give myself would be to continue to be diligent with my school work and to fill out as many scholarship applications as possible. Passionate about music, I found myself always in a rehearsal or performance, ignoring the future demand of money universities would soon be asking of me. Also, I would tell my younger self to be grounded with my own beliefs and lifestlye, but do not shut other people out because of the different views and ideas. College is about networking and meeting new people. A lot of people miss out on their big connections because they limit themselves to a certain type of people or group. Being open-minded is crucial in college because you never know who will take your dreams and visions to the next level. Living on campus exposes one to a whole realm of lifestyles and situations, from atheists to muslims, whites to blacks, vegetarians to diabetics, and thin to obese. Diversity teaches students to be more disciplined, respectful of others, and well-rounded. The transition to college will be easy if those things are kept in mind.

I wouldn't have any adivce to give myself. Learning can only happen through experience. You just figure things out as you go. Nothing anyone said to me would've changed my college life. I am confident that I chose the right school for my major, and that's the most important thing. I have no regrets.

Reflecting on the mindset I so naively possessed in regards to college life during my senior year of high school is somewhat comical now having almost completed journey. I remember envisioning the ultimate in everything; students being enraptured by eloquent and enthralling lectures, then just hours later heading out to only the greatest and most raucous parties on the eastern seaboard packed to the brim with beautiful coeds waiting to fulfill my every fantasy. I envisioned worldly and highly intellectual professors just waiting to divulge every secret to becoming a wildly accomplished academic. What I go was much different. Though there were indeed incredible parties, professors and students who genuinely cared about scholarly achievement, and enough beautiful girls to practically induce cataracts, my expectations were simply unrealistic. If I could go back and tell my young self anything during that fateful year in 2005, I would simply say, GET REAL! ! Like so many great experiences in life, college will prove much more fulfilling if you disregard your preconceptions and allow yourself to cultivate an open mind about the impending journey.

In High School I had little to no idea of what I wanted out of college. When I was looking at different schools and where to apply my criteria was big, good sports, and not in the country. I applyed to six very different schools and only got into two. Looking back now I wish I had actually looked more closely at my grades and achievements before applying to some of the schools. Also the schools I did get into were not ones that I wanted to attend. By my second semester of college I had transfered to Temple University which has many of my new requirements. I found the qualities I was looking for in a school in High School were not things that I could live in for four years. If I could go back and talk to myself in High School I would tell myself to visit schools for longer than a day and think about activities I would actually take part in not just activities I would like associating with.

When I began the year at Temple University, I did not overly concern myself with becoming involved in activities. I was too worried with being prepared for class and meeting new people. Although doing those things was important, I was not thinking of my college career as just that: a career. I see now how important it is to consider how what you are doing during these years will affect your future. If I could go back in time to talk to myself as a high school senior, I would insist that I look in to all the clubs and groups that pertain to my majors. This is so vital because being involved is a great way to make friends and meet people that will be able to help you later in life. Also, when it comes time to make a resume in order to get a job or internship, having a list of groups you actively participate in will be very beneficial.

If I could go back to when I was a high school senior, and give myself advice about college, the first thing that would come to my mind is to MANAGE MY TIME AND USE IT WISELY. Time management seems to be very important in college and I've suffered a couple times because I didn't use my time wisely and manage it. I would've told myself to make sure I do things ahead of time instead of sometimes waiting the last minute because that can affect a student, especially a freshman who's new to everything. Another thing I would tell myself as a highschool senior if I could go back is to stay focused. Focus is one of the hardest things to get used to because there's so much going on in big Universities that you can forget about your responsibility. Another reason why I would tell myself to stay focused is because studying is very important and it involves a lot of focus. A person can't study at all if they're not focused. So those are the main to things I would give myself for advice because they're the most important.

College recruiters do not usually tell high school students exactly what they need to know about the transition from high school to college. They usually get the round-about of telling them is a big step, get prepared, and stay on top of things. That helps, but it's not the nooks and crannies that students need to know. With the knowledge I know now, I would definately let myself know about the hardships of financial aid and wake myself up into applying for countless scholarships. College is more hard to pay for than you actually think, especially now because of the economy. I would also tell myself to know exactly where I want to go to school at and look at the benefits of being there. I went to my first college for freshman year only because a few of my friends went there. I later realized I was not happy there and made my choice to transfer to Temple University. Only if I could go back and inform myself, I believe I would be more prepared for going into college than I was my senior year of high school.

If i could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior I would say to stay focused and work on studying more in order to get used to how it is going to be in college. I also would have pushed myself harder to apply for as many scholarships as possible because as of now i find it difficult to get money for college in order to help pay my tuition because many scholarships out there are for high school seniors or students who have not yet attended college. If I could give myself advice after knowing what i know now I would tell myself not to give up and push as hard as I can to get to where i want to be because many obstacles will get in the way but you just can't give up.

Looking back on myself as a high school senior preparing for college, I find that there was a lot that I was worried about. I could now tell myself that most of those worries were in vain. I was afraid of losing touch with a lot of the people I had been friends with for years. I have kept those friends I wanted to keep, making sure to make calls and hang out with them when we could. I also worried that college work would be excruciatingly difficult. I have learned that time managament is key; the work is harder, but not impossible. I was afraid that I would not make friends - it's easy to meet people at college, and making new friends from all over the world is exciting. I was scared that I would not be able to keep up with the pace, but I found that I am capable of doing so. I have learned a lot about myself, and have become a better, more independent, confident, and happy person. The transition is not as hard as I thought, and the result is an amazing one.

The advice I would give myself is to try to adapt and socialize as soon as possible. Universities all over the country are like communities. In order to receive the best benefit from your college experience you have to get involved one way or another. Getting involved is the best way to become successful in college. Also, I would have told myself to be smart and know your limits. Unfortunately, college offers some of the best ways to make bad decisions such as drinking, doing drugs, and not being safe. Take into account that with college comes great responsibility. College is a maturation process and you are responsible for your actions. The college environment has vast differences from the high school environment. When entering college, you have to be ready to mature intellectually and mentally. If you aren't ready to take on the challenges of higher education then it might not be the right place for you.

If I could go back in time I would tell myself to keep an open mind and to take the opportunities that present themselves. I would tell myself that I have a lot to learn and to apply myself to the best of my ability. Some of the choices I will make will seem like the 'easy way out' but I must keep my head high and push through the obstacles. Change is a part of life, we change every second of the day that goes by and we must be aware that our choices decide who we are and affect everyone around us. We are slaves unto ourselves; nearly everything we do is ingrained in us by our parents and our society and we must break free and be conscious of our decisions. I would tell myself to not cancel the classes I took in community college but to do my best to the very end. I would tell myself to not take a break off from school and to jump right back in after moving in with my father. And I would tell myself to enjoy every last second of it. Do not be afraid I would say.

I was 22 years old when I started at Temple University, and while I had been working and learning the ropes of what it meant to pay rent and bills for some years already, I still wasn't prepared for the financial responsibilities of college. When I'd receive financial award letters telling me I could receive $4,500 in unsubsidized or subsidized loans, I didn't see the long term consequences of accepting them. Eventually I racked on almost $20,000 in debt in two years, and I've still got two more left. It wasn't until I took a year off from school, and I had to start repaying those loans did I realize what a mistake I'd made in taking out loans I didn't need. Now that I've returned - what I hope - is a wiser person, I won't take out loans unless absolutely necessary. Loans are not inherently bad, and they can provide the opportunity for higher education to a person who wouldn't otherwise be able, but just remember LOANS ARE NOT FREE MONEY, and if you think otherwise, you'll be stuck with them for many years to come.

I would start by saying that college is an essential part of my overall development. The things I've learned while being away from home in a challenging, adult environment is crucial. Getting involved is an ideal way to know what you want. Joining groups, attending workshops and classes, and talking to people will help you to confirm your likes and dislikes. Although college is a lot of fun, I've learned to prioritize better-- whether it means choosing to go to a social function over writing my paper or which activities to attend that would reinforce my major. Also I?ve learned the value of money in the real world. College is expensive and if you don?t have your eye on the prize from now, it would only lead to disappointment and failure. I?ve also learned to be more assertive when it comes to my career path. I?ve discovered how to better prepare myself for the career world, through networking to get to the next level of my goal and presenting my skills and talents in a professional way. If one uses it to their best of their abilities, college is the best tool for success.

If I were able to go back in time to talk to my high school senior self, I would give a few significant words of advice. For one, I would say that it is okay to feel scared and nervous about going to college because honestly, every incoming freshman feels that way, no matter how hard they try to hide the insecure feelings. Even the upperclassmen are and can feel lost and confused because essentially, we are all trying to discover what works for us and our passions in college. Secondly, frankly speaking, it is perfectly normal and not surprisingly unexpected that you will find yourself feeling extremely idiotic or "stupid" because not everyone is expected to pass do well on their first college exams, ace their first midterms, deliver a flawless and confident presentation, etc. It's almost unrealistic to expect such a notion and feat. Just try to use every obstacle or challenge that you encounter in college as a learning experience for better and stronger semesters to come. Never lose heart or sight of your goals. Lastly, the transition to college will be undoubtedly hard, but be willing to keep an open mind, socialize, and work hard.

I would tell myself to do thorough research, fill out and apply for everything early, and search any and every legal avenue you can to finance your college career. I would also advise myself to talk to and get to know my classmates and professors more readily, because I'll have a broader network of friends and peers that could be great people to depend on in my future career.

Do what YOU want to do and not what others want you to do or what you think they want you to do. Never feel pressured by anyone. College is the best experiece of your life and make the best of it: be open to new ideas and people; as cliche as it is, don't judge a book by its cover; go out and enjoy your surroundings, the city is an amazing place full of so much to do! Make new friends, because they will last a lifetime, but don't forget about the old ones either. Talk to your professors because they have a great wealth of knowlege and are always willing to help you out, even if the problem isn't academic. Give back to the community, especially at Temple, because the community gives the school so much for so little. Learn about yourself and find who you really are. Temple is a place where you can find where you belong if you don't already know. Be proud to be a Temple Owl! Be yourself, and love yourself, because that is who you're here for: you.

I would tell myself how important it is to really try in school. It is so important to not underestimate yourself. I would tell myself to go the extra-mile and sign up for the harder class. In this life you reap what you sew. If you want to be happy and successful, if you want to be able to provide your future family with the life that they deserve, then you must be willing to work hard. You must be willing to ever stretch beyond your capabilities so you can grow into the great person your parents see within you. Never be satisfied with mediocrity. Also I would tell myself to learn. Learn as much as you can. There will come a day when you will not be physically strong enough to provide through manual labor. In that day you will be so grateful that you decided to gain an education so that you can continue to support yourself and those you love. There will also come a day when all that you will have to pass onto your children and the future generation will be your wisdom. Finally, I would tell myself to find joy in the journey.

Looking back, I would tell myself to consider every aspect of college life before choosing a school. As a senior, I chose a school based solely on the availability of my major and being able to play softball at the collegiate level. I realize now that there is much more to college life than sports and that I should have considered what I wanted from my school's campus life. Because there are many commuteres at my school, most of my classmates and friends outside of my sport do not live on campus. I definitely would have preferred to attend a school with a bigger population of students living on campus. I also would have told myself to try to make more friends within my major when making the transition to college. I relied a lot on my sports team as my source for friends and I have now realized that I have much more in common with students in my major. These type of people can also be very helpful with classes and networking and are more likely to be life-long friends. Looking back on my college experience I realize these things are most important to me.

I would tell myself to spend more time applying for scholorships and working a lot more. Payign for college has been a really tough struggle and I wish I recieved at least one scholorship last year but I didnt. It would of really been worth it to spend more weekends at home applying for some and picking up more hours at the gas station I work at.

While academic success is a key aspect of the college experience, there is so much more required for success in the post-graduate world that does not involve getting good grades. The material you learn outside of the classroom may be just as important as the material take in from a professor?s lecture. There is a common perception that going to a big name school and a high GPA then you will become successful. However, I have learned that employers are looking for graduates that stand out from their peers. Therefore, if I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior than I would advise myself to involved in more extracurricular activities and programs.

Garrick, it is possible to keep your work ethics and maintain an active social life. Don't forsake friendship for all work and don't foresake work for just parties. Find a balance in between and enjoy your life and make the most out of your education.

I would give myself the advice of applying to as many scholarships as possible. Even though it is considered good credit, my student loans are very high and thousands of dollars in repayment could have been avoided. I allowed my laziness to get in the way of writing essays and filling out applications; now I regret that. I love to write, and I am an English-Education major, but I still got lazy. There is free money out there to help with the cost of education, all students have to do is apply themselves, and do what needs to be done. I had to skip a semester of school and got put back a whole year, because I owed money. As I go forward to graduate school to earn my PhD, I will not make the same mistake; I will go full force to fund my education.

Take your GPA and course selections seriously but don't give up on your interests outside of your major. Networking is incredibly important so take every encounter seriously and professionally. Stay organized and always check your syllabi. Life is going to be in a constant state of change for you in the next four years. Don't get discouraged when money is tight or when family is far. You'll make it out OK and find yourself in a confident, settled place.

I would tell myself to not take the year off inbetween high school and college. Doing that delayed me, and I feel older then everyone else in the school. It was a great idea to go to Community College before Temple though; made me appreciate everything that much more!

The same advice as I give my self regarding life itself. Treat other's as you would like to be treated and simply try your best in everything that you do.

Try your best as soon as you start school and give school your all.

In all seriousness, I would advise myself to do exactly what I've done since day one. I came into college knowing that I was going to give it my all. I knew college tuition is expensive and wasn't going to be pay for itself. Aware of the sacrifices my mom makes for me to earn a post-secondary education, it is crucial that I work hard to get the most out of my time at Temple University. While I love the time I spend with my new friends, I don't allow it to get in the way of my education. The social aspect of college is important, yet at no time should it overpower schooling. The advice I would give myself is to be calm and enjoy myself. I came into Temple University a little nervous over how I would perform in school and what kind of experience I would face overall, yet after having gone through a year and a half of schooling, I know that I am capable of succeeding in class while simultaneously building friendships and expanding my network.

Go to community college first.

Don't stress the details. Getting into college is then hard part, but actual college work is not so much. Your GPA only matters if you want to go to graduate school or transfer. Friends come and go and you will learn the most useful and interesting things during this time in your life. Don't stress about your major too much, for you can always change it. Most people do. Most people don't even go into the same field of study. Make friends, make connections and LIVE YOUR LIFE. regret nothing and do everything. we're only young once.

Ed, You're a hard-working person and that will take you through college. Your social skills are a valued asset and will lead to great things in both your personal life and your career advancement. Volunteer and participate in as many opportunities as possible to get the experience, as maybe you could have done more of that. On the other hand, your work ethic and willingness to try new things will really improve your resume and hopefully lead to a great job when you graduate. Always try to stay one step ahead of everyone else, even if they are your closest friends. Yet these same friends have made you who you are and you should always be willing to help them out with anything if you feel like you are able to. The best advice I can give myself is "Don't say no" to any situation as long as you've weighed your options. There will be a lot of offers on the table ranging from anything such as a job or internship opportunity, a course offering, and even social situations. I trust you will make the same wise decisions I have. Just live for the experience!

Always stay focused. You cannot go back and re-do all your classes. Try to really think about a major because if you don't then you may end up taking unnecessarily. Get involved with groups on campus and community service, it helps out. Build relationships with teachers even the wierd ones. Plan financially before and remember college is just a lifestyle so learn from it while you can.

Its fun
