Frederick

That taking hours to ensure you move to the next grade level is not always best.

Anna

I wish I would've know that the experience of going to college was going to be so full-filling. I do my best to encourge all younger students in grade school to keep there mind open about college. I feel like everyone should experience going to school and being as successful as they can be!

Dominique

No, not at all. Even though this was not the dchool I wanted to go to at first, I was very comfortable as soon as I arrived.

Stephen

I wish i had learned to properly study and manage my time.

Ryan

cari

I wish i had known that the availability of financial aid was not as easy to acquire and keep as i thought it was.

Lindsey

It's important to get involved right from the start. It's a small school, but it is still sometimes difficult to make friends your first semester if you don't get involved. Once in your major, you will definetely get to know your fellow classmates, but in the first year especially, it is difficult to meet new people unless you have something tying you together. I chose to join a sorority and that has made all the difference to my college experience, and since there are only four sororities here, we are all very close as a greek community.

Courtney

That the communication major also meant advertising.

Tara

I wish I had known more about the city and the relation the college has to places. I often have to find places off of campus for supplies, which has been a hassle. I also wish I had known about the food choices .
