If I could go back and tell myself anything as a high school senior, I would tell myself to get prepared. College is not like high school so do not treat college like high school. College is not to be taken lightly. Also, studying is extremly important. In high school, there really was no studying, in college is is all you do. You should study atleast 3 hours a week for each class. Online classes are also extremly hard. They are not an easy way out as many people think. They require even more time than regular campus classes because you have to make up for no having any class time. Time managment and seriousness is key when entering college. Nothing comes before school. College is the number one priority. High school was fun, especially senior year, but now this is college and it is a little less fun and more work and seriousness. It is extremly easy to bring down your GPA but not so easy to bring it back up. You should always work hard no matter what and put school work first.
