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

I wish I had known about how easy it is to get involved in campus organizations. At the begining of fall semester there is "Get A Clue" where all the student organizations come out to the mall (the center of our campus) so that people can sign up and find out how to join.I wish I knew how easy it is to access my professors. All professors hold office hours and not only are they actially there for them but often times you find them there outside of their hours willing to help you with anything

I wish I would had known about the cost of attendance and all the requirements to completely graduate on time. When you first attend ECU, they do discuss the cost of the school but little do you know that if you are a little short, you have to drop out of school until you are able to pay it. The school and federal financial aid do not cover youe whole college year and it is so hard to get a private loan. Some requirement to graduate on time is not fully discussed to us also.
