What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year at Franklin and Marshall College?

Patricia

It's okay to come into college undecided. At Franklin and Marshall, no one declares a major until the end of sophomore year anyway. It's okay to not know what you want to do. The liberal arts system and your academic adviser will help you discover your passion. So stop worrying!

There are quite a lot of legacies and students from very priviledged backgrounds. There is no wireless internet in many of the freshman dorms and on campus housing leaves something to be desired ... too many people in too little space. There is a very competitive atmosphere academically, especially among pre-professional students.

I wish I had known what people do on the weekends. Sometimes weekend activities get monotonous.

I wish I had known how difficult it was going to be to finance F&M. For a school that champions diversity, they make it awfully difficult for students from low income families to attend without accruing some serious debt.
