Pennsylvania State University-Penn State Abington Top Questions

If I had the opportunity to go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior knowing what I know now, the first thing I would tell myself would be to STUDY STUDY STUDY, there would be no way I would succeed if I did not study, and not just for 15-20 mins no hours at a time. My teacher told me in the start of my first semester for every hour in their class spent two hours outside of school studying, and that advice has carried me a long way. The second thing I would tell myself would be to surround myself with other students with the common interest of working hard and staying focused on the task at hand, do not allow people that do not want better for themeselves to take you off your square. Lastly would be to know your professors. make sure to reach out to them for help when you do not understand the work never be afraid to ask questions, do not let the work slip to far away from you, get a tutor if need be but never give up.

If I could go back in time and give myself advice for college, I would tell myself to be open and make alot of friends, you are never going to get to know anyone if you don't try. Friends as well as your education make you college experience. I would probably tell myself to get more invoved at school if it had fit into my schedule a little more. Its hard to be involved in school when you work so much while since it is a commuter school it is hard to make friends that are always around. I would tell myself to enjoy the experience.

If I could go back in time and tell my high school senior self something, it would be to think about what you really want to do with the rest of your life and to not be afraid to experiment with different fields. Also, to never give up on your dreams because there is something out there for everything and everyone. I would tell myself to look for as many scholarships and fianancial aid as you possible can because college is differently not cheap. Saving money is also something that can you could benfit from because it can provide food or money for books that are also very expensive. Overall, just believe in yourself and know that everything is possible and that yes, it will get difficult and stressful at times, but you can overcome that and succeed.

Never give up. Never run away from a hard class or assignment. Go to Penn State.

If i could go back and time to my senior i think i would try to give my senior self to take advantage of the full college fun, because i was so caught up with school work i hadly had anytime for a campus activities, and trips. if i did spend more time on school activities and trips, maybe i would have communicate more with my fellow classmates.

I would tell myself to really think about all of the factors affecting where I would go to school; how I would pay for things like housing and meal plans, transporation, the options for the major I want and any work studies or study abroad programs. My main advice would be to not listen to everyone else who thinks they know what's what, but to do my own research, make the phone calls and find out the pertinent information to make an informed decision. Basically, I would tell myself to put more effort into choosing a college and think about everything that would affect my decision. Ultimately, my advice would be to do what's best for myself and my future

make sure u do as many scholarships as possible because college is not cheap

CONTINUE TO DO WELL.

Make a plan early and follow through with it. Always have backup plans so that if anything falls through you can go another route. Take into consideration factors like housing, meal plans and financial aid. Don't worry about where your friends are going, do what's best for you.
