Lake Erie College Top Questions

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

Michelle

I wish that I had known how the school rated on their general education requirements. Many of them I had taken before and I may have looked at a different school that had harder requirements. I found that this schoold gen. eds. were easy for me to complete. I also wish I had known what it was like to be away from home. It was a bit of a shock to be away from home for the first time 7 hours away. But I got used to it relatively quickly.

I'm not sure if there is anything I wish I knew before I came to Lake Erie. One thing is that being Lake Erie is a small school you will always have people who know your business. If you do something stupid people are going to know and some may give you problems about it , but others won't . I also wish I knew that in order to get contacts you have to make yourself stand out and get involved in your school and community. I found that out my sophmore year when i started getting involved.

I wish I would have been properly advised. I transfered from a 4 year public school, and many of my credits did not transfer. I was also told to take certain classes that I did not particularly need. With Lake Erie College being a small school, many classes are offered once every two years. Because I was not properly advised, I had to independent study many of my classes. I am not comfortable with this because I feel like I am paying my college to teach myself.
