First advice i would give as a high school senior knowing then what I know now is, SAY NO TO CREDIT CARDS! They are very bad for you especially as a broke college student. Another thing I would tell the seniors is to choose a major that they know they are going to love everyday that they wake up to go to. I would also say apply yourself 101 prcent to your work so you can come out on top. I would also say enjoy their college experience with discretion, and always maintain a positive leadership.

Love your parents and spend as much time as you can with them. They care about you more than anyone else in the world. Now that you have independence on a College campus, no one really can guide you on an everyday basis the way you learned from your parents to live. Communicate with them so they can recognize the changes in your life that you are experiencing.

They just do their job
