Jacksonville State University Top Questions

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

Meagan

Before I came to this school, I wish I would have known exactly how expensive it would be. I came straight from a community college and did not anticipate the cost to go as high as it did. I definitely would have applied for more scholarships. I also, would try to meet other students that have class with me to carpool. Driving an hour to and from school everyday gets rather expensive. I would have just anticipated the cost of everything and tried to make arrangements.

I wish I would have known that most professors want to work with you in your coursework. If there is a problem, like becoming sick, then the professors will more than likely work with students to reschedule tests and exams.
