Lambuth University Top Questions

The experiences that I have been able to gain out of attending college have been what kind of people I want involved in my life and which ones I don't. Also experiences with with seeing people drink and party, which drinking is something I really don't understand . The things in my college adventure that have been valuable are; increased in self-confidence, dependency, and most of all responsibility. Self-confidence has been valuable because in high school I was always quiet and afraid that if I spoke my opinion or gave people my ideas they would laugh at me. Now in college I am able to speak what I think bacause they teach you that you need to speak for what you believe is right. Dependency is valuable to me becasue I lived with my parents and now I have to look out for myself and decide what I want to do with my life. Responsibility has been valuable in college because now I know what it feels like to be responsible, to look out for your own, and to make sure everything you do is towards the right path.

I have learned so much from my college experience at Lambuth University. I learned so much, not just about school work but about how to be a good perosn. How to help people and always look to the future. I've learned from Lambuth that even when it seems that there is no way to rise up from the bad times and brush off the dust of old and tired thoughts there always is a choice to sit or rise up anyway and move forward. I wouldn't change anything about my school or any of the experiences that happened at my school for anything in the world. It is because of the love I have for my school that I want to continue my education, so someday I might be able to return to my alma mater and teach history there and brighten young minds and help them become as passionate about Lambuth as I am. Without Lambuth University and the experiences I had there and the people I met there I would not be the passionate person that I am today.

The advice i would give myself if i could go back in time would be take everything you do in high school serious. It would help me get better prepared as a student for the college life i am in now. I know if i could tell myslf that it would have better prepared me for the stress i am going through now.

Please take academics seriously, it is the key to your future. Practice good study habits, in college it will make all the difference in the world. Visualize yourself as a college student and think of ways to prepare yourself.

I wish I would have listened to my parents more often about developing better study skills and take school more seriously. I have found out that high school is the foundation to your success in college. Also, you have to grow up and take responsibility for yourself in everything you do. Do your homework and get to know your professors.

If I could go back in time, and give myself advice on college and transitioning, it would be to enjoy everything you can. Don't hold back on anything, because you're afraid of what people will think. You are who you are, and you should be proud of it! These years go fast, and before you know it they'll be over. Don't end up graduating saying to yourself "I wish I would have...." Live life to the fullest! And remember to bring extra plastic silverware, it disappears really quickly!

research and vist or get in where you fit in

I would definately advise one to look at as many schools as possible. Also, when touring schools try to just "stop by" because some schools get things together before visits. Take time to ask as many questions as possible because everything is important! Ask the school questions about the Alumni and how often there are family days. Many schools have tuition raises every year, see how much the estimated cost is going to be for the complete degree. Choose wisely because you only get to choose once!!!

When deciding which college is right for you, don't base it simpl on one aspect or the other. The university that I attended was not my first choice. The main reason that I did not first consider attending Lambuth was because they could not offer me as much of a scholarship for golf as a couple of other schools that I had spoken to. However, after visiting the campus, meeting my potential professors, and gaining the overall experience of what it was like to attend Lambuth University, I was sold. So, do not simply attend a college because they offer you the most money (academically or otherwise). If you make this mistake, you'll most likely end up unhappy with your decision and transfer schools after a year or two, possibly losing credits and eventually paying more for your education than you thought.

Go where you feel comfortable because you will be spending many, many hours there over the next few years
