Kentucky State University Top Questions

When coming to an University do not be nervous. Every other freshman, will feel the same as you. Make sure your friends eith the right crowd. Just because people are in college, does not mean that they are good company. On the other hand, take time to study. every week use 3 hours tostudy for each class. If the class is not challenging then, only use 1 hour. Have fun but remember why your at college.

A small, personal college is a nice start, but a large, academically challenging college will prepare you best for graduate studies and competitive employment.

My best advice would to be more open and social. College life is what you want to make it and it is only as fun as you want it to be. The AIT department over at KSU is awesome and has truly inspired me to want to be a web programmer. Go for what you love and you can never fail. Good luck!

If I could go back and talk to myself as a high school senior, knowing what I know about college life and making the transition, I would tell myself to be more serious about my schoolwork from the beginning because although you think college work is the same as high school you have no idea. The course load is much larger and can be much harder. Another thing I would tell myself to keep a detailed calendar of all assignments and their due date s that way you leave no room to fall behind and you can get everything completed in a timely manner. I would also tell myself to prioritize all assignments as well as social events and let myself know that is okay to say no to your friends. You don?t have to go to every party or event , you will have plenty of time to have fun later on in your college career, just focus on building a strong foundation because it will pay off in the long run.

If I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior I would. Knowing how college is I would have to let mysef know that college is no joke and is nothing to be playing around with. I would also let myself know that it should be taking seriously. The transition from high school is a dramatic change. Never let yourself get overwelmed by what other people are saying about college. College is not hard, but is just made up of time management. You must know how to manage your time between your scholastics, friends, and having a good time outside of your studies. As long as you do all work when it is giving and do it to your best then you would have a possibility to accquire a 4.0 your first year as a college student.

The advice would be to, stay on track. Study, in high school I never studied and always just somehow slid by with good grades, but I never really worked for them. Know that I?m in college you just can?t slid. Be more involved in more Iin activities in high school. In college being involved in activities around campus somehow help ease up on the transition into college. Being involved in activities helps build up friendships and relationships with students and professors, this can be extremely beneficial to your future and career in school. The last piece of advice is to not be so upset that you didn?t get to go to your first school of choice because of financial situations. The decision that was mad was extremely hard but, the choice that was made in the end was the best decision. Don?t base you decision on what others tell you, base you decision on what you know. Just follow you heart and it will help with the transition, don?t base you decision on what others say base it on fact, and truth and you will succeed in all ways possible.

If I could go back in time as a high school senior I would tell myself to work harder in school. I would also tell myself to be prepared to live on my own. There is nobody there to make me go to class, and to make me go talk to my adviser. I would prepare myself for a large work load and more studying then I have ever done in my life. I would prepare myself for the strugle of going back and forth to the finacial aid office begging for money, and they deny me in a rude manner. I would have thought more carefully about the school that I go to. Thank You.

I would tell my self to stay focused and keep my grades up and to apply for financial aid as soon as possible and to apply for as many scholarships as i can.

My advice has to be parents let your children have a say so in the institution that they will be attending. Nobody wants to be stuck at a school that they did not really like in the first place. To the students please love every moment that you are in college. From the first time you meet your roommate until graduation, love it and take in every moment of it. School goes by fast and the opportunities and connections are never ending.

In order to find the right college, it takes a lot of research. Look into the things that you may not think about being a high school senior, such as meal plans, dorm rules, and class size. Secondly, visit as many schools as you can. Don't let the first time on the campus be after you have already made the decision to attend the school. Truly make sure that you can afford the school. Stressing about paying for school is not healthy nor is it fun, and a lot of the times you end up transferring anyways. Try to talk to a lot of different people who already attend the school, have graduated, and teach there. Lastly, NEVER attend a school because you heard it was "fun."
