Campbell University Top Questions

I would tell myself to be more outgoing and willing to get out of my comfort zone. I have met a lot of interesting people so far, and I never know what friendships or relationships I may have missed out on. Have fun!

In high school, I was tense about every test, prject and essay. I assumed that college professors would shove essay after essay in me face and expect perfection at first try. I went into college a nervous wreck, prepared to take on the worst. If I could just slap myself in the face and give myself a pep-talk, I would be telling myself to "take a chill pill," they are not going to expect you to know what you are doing right off the bat. Freshmen get a lot of grace from the professors because they are still adjusting to the college life. I would tll myslf to stop bing so uptight about every single detail and do not expect perfection when in all honesty, no one is perfect.

My college experience so far has been very dull. The iniversity I attend is very inactive and it has a huge lack of support for its student body. Accidemics and golf are the main focuses of the university. My grades are great though.

This is my first time attending college and I must say that I am very excited and willing to further my education. I am going to nashville auto diesel college and I am taking up Collision repair and Refinishing Technology which plays a major part of something that I wanted to do since I was about 12 years old this is pretty much finding my dream, reaching for it and hoping to make it to the end so that I can assure that I get to where i need to be in life. Especially to the fact that doing this means that I am going to have a great job that I love and theres nothing like saying that I go to work and I am actually happy to go or that I love my job. Hopefully this can help me pay for college It would really be helpful for me to achieve my ultimate goal. Having this option has opened a few doors for me and hopefully I can open a few more in the near future.

I am currently finishing my first semester as a Freshman and I have grown up more in three months at college than eighteen years at home with my parents. I have learned to be a true team player . I recently told both of my parents who were never afforded the opportunity that I have to go to college that I know I am going to be able to give back to my community and our economy more when I become a Pharmacist and a college education at Campbell will give that to me. I will be a giver and always grateful for the privilege of freedom in having a college education.

I have yet to be able to enjoy the college experience because I have been unable to attend due to lack of funds. I would love to be able to finally attend college so I can build a better future for me and my family. I would also like to enrich the culture of the younger generations by making them excited about the arts. So all I ask is for the oppurtunity to be able to go to college to further educate myself.

I am completing my first semester of College . Having attended a progressive learning environment in High School, I thought the adjustment would be minimal. The experience has been challenging. From the first day of move in, adjustments were made very rapidly. Meeting new people, developing friendships, and learning "my way" was a unique experience. Setting up your life and your schedule in a campus environment is the first real test of independence. Developing a comfortability with your schedule, and how to get to where you need to be in a timely manner has taught me to be a better planner and organizer of my time. So far, I have learned a lot about myself, and my strengths and weaknesses. I learned that my parents were right about many things....sit up front , don't miss class, and be involved with what you are learning. Cramming will catch up with you , find the best study time and study environment for you . I've realized your environment is what you make it.....Surrounding myself with the right people, and experiences, will help me identify my goals, and strengthen my abilities.

As of right now their hasn't been much of a college experience. But being here has helped me realize what I am not. I am not the type of student that likes small cities with nothing surrounding the campus. I am not the type that goes out and parties and gets drunk all the timme but I just like to have the reassurance that there is potentially something going around a college campus. I have realized that grade are more important than anything else in school. I am a baseball player here and I have realized how important school is to me now. Baseball will only take me so far in life, but and education will take me more places than any sport ever will. My love for the game has demineshed but what has increased is the respect of knowledge and an education. I want a better life for me and my future family and I don't believe that I can achieve what I want here. So where ever I may end up, I hope to become a better person first, student second, and if sports are still in the picture, thats's last.

My college experience has been an amazing time of self-discovery and independence. I have learned that I am a stronger person than I thought before, and that I have the skills that I need to make it on my own. The journey has given me self-confidence and really reinforced my calling to be a social worker. If I had not attended this college, I would have been swept away in the crowd, but Campbell quickly feels like home to those who come. My dream is to work with orphans and adoptions, and college is making that goal a reality by placing me in internships and giving me the education needed for my future career. Without this experience, I would not be able to achieve my desire to help children who do not have a mother or father to support them, and it is for this reason that college is indispensable.

From having this experience, I have learned to mature and find myself. I am also thankful for what my family has blessed me with, in having an education. I have been opened up to new experiences through the community and through my studies. One of the most important aspects of my education is the atmosphere. Atmosphere is everything, especially when it determines how well you adapt to the surrounding. All in all, this education has opened up a broader perspective by showing me how determination and finding yourself makes the experience all the better.
