Spring Arbor University Top Questions

I wish I had a better idea of what I wanted to do with my major. If I had looked further into the curriculum and thought more about whether it was good or not. For general terms it might be, but it could also be a personal fault for not checking. I would also have wanted to relook at the finances for the school, it`s pricy and to go for four years will be a challenge.

i wish i knew that this school wasn't a HBCU

The one thing I wish I had been certain of previous to arriving at Spring Arbor University was what field of study I wanted to follow. I came in with somewhat recklessly and arrogantly. I basically had half my mind set on studying Physics for the sole reason that I was very talented at it. Nevertheless, I attained doubts after my first year and ended up changing my major multiple times. I am happy now to be majoring in both Global Studies and Spanish, but I still wish I had made up my mind previous to my sophomore year.

How attached I would be to it! I love it so mcuh and all of the people and it is hard to leave it even if it is just for the weekend becasue you miss all of the people.

I actually knew a good amount before coming.

I wish I had known better how financial aid and loans work.

Nothing else.

I wish I had known about the minimal amount of jobs on campous and how much they pay everyone. It would have been nice to know how the food in the dining commons tasted and that they serve better food when people visit.

I wish I would have know how big the school was and certain unspoken rule and traditions that were done in certain departments. Also, how certain students will behave in the classrooms and certain disrespectul manners can get very frustrating. So learning abou these things would have been helpful in helping me to prepared for college. Yet also, learning or knowing that college is hard yet it is doable would have been a nice encouragement. I was expecting the worse and though it can get tough at times, its doable with hard work and dedication.

I wish I would have known the little availability of work. Spring Arbor is not a busy town whatsoever and there are only so many jobs on campus. Even then, you do not get a lot of hours to work, so it's hard to make money.
