Kutztown University of Pennsylvania Top Questions

I'd tell myself to not live in a triple, apply to more colleges, make decisions based on yourself and not others, and take in the experience with an open mind.

Get as much financial aid as possible! Don't slack off senior year.

Save money, do your work, dont fuck up, dont leave tanner, take more credits, and get your ass out of bed you fool!

The advice I would give my self is to learn how to study. My high school did not really get me ready for the type of testing I would be having in college. Also, I would make sure that I met with teachers that would be teaching the field I am in, for me it really makes all the difference.

nothing really would of changed honestly. My high school prepared me completly for college that theres nothing that i would of changed :)

To work harder and to try or a scholarship harder.

Don't stress Lydia, Kutztown is a great place to be yourself and not worry about what people have to say about you. The work is challenging, but very worth it for what you want to pursue in life. Just breathe and step forth without looking back; you'll be fine.

It's alright to stress out a little but don't overdo it. You'll do just fine and your friends and fellow employees are there to help. Rely on people, don't just think you can do it all by yourself. Other than that, have fun; you'll do great!

College is a big social experiment. You are on your own and most, if not all, your friends from high school will not be there. Leave your shyness behind you and learn to live life. Do not be afraid or embarrassed to talk to others. When people ask you to hang out, do it! School work is your most important reason to be at college, but don't hide behind it as an excuse to not socialize. You got four years til the real world, have fun doing it. Many opportunities may be missed. Just speak up and be confident. You do not want any regrets. They will come back to nag at you later in life. No one wants to live life asking theirself, "what it"? Life can be complicated and can take time to figure out. Take it easy and do not worry so much. The future is later, the present is now. Worrying is only going to cause more stress with the added school work and social life. Just be happy for where you are now in life and things will work out later on.

Every person is different and you have to make the choice that is right for you. As you visit different colleges make a list of the positives and negatives at each one and how you felt that day as you toured the college. Write things about how the atmosphere felt, what the buldings looked like, how the dorms were, etc. Compare your notes at the end and go from there. Not every person is satisfied where they go in their first year. It is okay to transfer schools because you want to find a place that fits you best. You want to be at a college where you are excited to go to class and learn as well as meet new people and make life long friends. You want your college to feel like your second home. Never give up because you will find the place where you belong, it just takes time and a positive attitude.
