I wish I had known prior to enrolling that many of the majors I was interested in, such as nursing and elementary education, had tight schedules in order to graduate in four years.

My wish would have been to be aware of these restricitions before I was in college.

I wish I knew that people left for the weekend and went home. My first semester was very lonely because I was not prepared for that.

I did join a sorority and instantly had a bunch of friends so that was a good experience for me and made all the difference in terms of having a social life.
