Bloomsburg University of Pennsylvania Top Questions

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

Zach

The diversity, the area surronding.

Jasmin

When I came to Bloomsburg University I wish I would have known about the weird weather patterns. It gets extra cold in the weather, colder than what I am used to. In addition, the spring is like the summer time and its gets very hot.

Charmiane

I wish, that I would have known, to actually take me high school education seriously. When I came to this university it was a huge transitional change. I had to study very hard inorder to understand the material that was presented to me. It was difficult for me to grasp even the simple concepts. And I still have that problem today, so I really wish I would have paid attention in high school.

Jessica

If I had to choose one thing I knew before attending college it would be have better time managment and start to not reley on your parents and teachers to be ontop of your school work and life because in college you are all on your own with no parents or teachers that care about how or when you do work.

Glenn

After attending Bloomsburg University for a semester, there is one thing in particular that I wish I would have known before enrolling into the university. I play football for Bloomsburg. I have a problem with the fact that there is no organized training or weight lifting during the football season. The players are all on there own when it comes to getting faster and stronger during the season. I wish I would have known that that was how it was going to be before I enrolled.

Amanda

That i would need to study a lot more for my first semester.

Matthew

I wish I would have known how much fun I was going to have to eliminate how nervous I first was.

Joshua

I wish I knew that I was not going into education. The education department sucks, and I found myself switching out of it during my sophomore year. Had I known that I was going to pursue graduate studies, I would have gone to a college with a more recognizable name, and more serious students.

Christina

I wish I had known how faculty helps with job placement, because as a graduate from Bloomsburg, I'm unemployed and received no assistance from Bloomsburg. I also wish I had known a little more about the area and things to do with free time, other than attend sporting events and drinking parties. I wish I knew some faculty members fail to efficiently advise students, especially when they graduate and then a month later get a letter from school saying a class they took almost five years ago never counted, therefore that student didn't graduate, how "unfortunate".

Brianne

There were not really any suprises for me at Bloomsburg. I had known from older friends that Bloomsburg was a great campus and that people enjoyed being there so there wasnt really anything I did not know.
