Before coming to school, I wish i would have known just how different it is from high school. No one is there to hold your hand. Mom and dad no longer attend parent teacher conferences on your behalf, you have to fend for yourself. Even though it is a challenge for most, it is only but a taste of being in the real world. Self motivation is a nessacery value one must have as professors often have no time to baby a student.

I wish i knew what i wanted to do with my life i am expected to know what i want to do when i am not sure. I also wish I knew that they dont pair 1st year students up w/mentor for the next twoyears. I also wish i knew that this school dont distrubute extra financial assistance to students of low income families. To earn scholarship i need to make the grade im busy working a job to pay for school its extremely hard,when coming from a household w/ badcredit getting a loan is not an option

One thing I wish I knew before I came to this school was that they offered scholarships for incoming transfer students. I transferred here from Long island University in Brooklyn New York and it was entirly to expensive. I have so many student loans and a parent plus loan that is just to much for me and my mother. by the time I realized they had scholarships for incoming freshman and transfer students the deadline was up.

One thing that i wish i knew before i came to Delaware State is that how easily it is to make new friends. During my first week of school, i have made over 100 plus friends and im constantly making more. Everybody is friendly, the teachers are nice and really seem to care about us.

Before coming to college I wish I had been more financially prepared. Not always is the ?right opportunity? passed our way. Some have to work for it through countless hours typing essays extracting every vivid detail of one?s community service and past achievements. While others are naturally gifted with athletic abilities or genius-like smarts which out them in the running for any scholarship out there.

I wish that I had known before coming to this campus that time management is very important in order to be academically successful in school. For example, during the week days there are a lot of activities going on campus. In order to balance extracurricular activities and school work, it may be necessary not to attend an activity or event in order to study for a test or homework.

Before coming to DSU I wish I would have known how important time management is. I always heard of college students complaining about not having enough time but never really understood until I stepped foot at DSU. Between classes, work, and clubs and organizations time is of the essence. I have learned that there is more than enough time in the day to get what needs to be done, done. It is a matter of sitting down and creating a schedule that fits your needs.
