I would pay more attention to the scholarships and opportunities offered at each school that I got accepted into to utilitize every opportunity given. I would do what is best for me and not attempt to please others. I would choose to work in a place that is worldwide to be able to transfer to different locations when needed. I would attempt to pick a sports scholarship to help with the finances of college. I would do so many things differently because I now know what it is like to loose opportunites given because of a preference.

I would first say, see if you can talk to someone who is a current student and/or a recently graduated alumni of the school i plan on attending. Then I would say go to the school for an on campus visit to see the school, the living conditions, and what the people do for fun recreationally . I would also say to my self, once your satisfied with the acedemic standing of your chosen school and it is within your price range, make sure your compatable with the weather of that area. Theres nothing worst than going somewhere and not being able to cope with the enviorment.

To be totally honest i would tell myself that college is hard and that while taking AP classes i should just go ahead and pay for the test so that i could get the credit ahead of time instead of taking the classes and not the test. Not to mention that i would tell myself that the money from that job at least ten percent needs to be put away for college because i didn't even think of going to a private college until the last minute and their is alot more cost here than at a public college.

I would have a long talk with myself that would go something like this: ?Kathy, you are about to turn a corner in your life. You may not have made some mistakes in high school. Maybe you didn?t do as well as you could have. Maybe you could have had a higher GPA, but it?s a new day. Put all of that behind you and prepare to take this major step. You can and will succeed in college. Funds will scarce but you can work and attend school. There will be no one there to make you go to class. The teacher will not remind you of tests or assignments. They will simply hand out the syllabus and rely on you to govern yourself accordingly. Ask for help if you need it. Kathy, go to class everyday, do your homework and stay focused. There will be activities that have the potential to distract you. You have the rest of your life to socialize. Take care of your education now. Make it a priority.?

i would tell meself to work harder in school so when i get to college it want be hard for me. I would also save more of my money so i would be able to do what i want once i get to college.

I would tell parents and student that make sure before you accept you acceptance to the school, go look at the school and make sure it is really what you were looking for in making you final decision. You also need to make sure that you are aware of all the finanical aid you can receive from that institution and if they are not then fight until you receive you that should be offered to you. It shouldn't matter how much your parent makes you should be able to receive !

There is truly no way to tell what college is best for you until you visit and sit in class rooms to see how the teacher interacts with the students if you like to get one on one's then a big college is not for you but a small college like wiley is perfect

Stay on top of things!

Be sure that the school you attend will challenge you academicly so that you can learn.
