There is nothing that I didn't really know before I came to this school. I did my research.

I wish I would have known about all of the various resources available on campus. Our orientation does a fair job covering the most of them, but over the course of a year I learned about an infinite number of programs, labs, activities, and knowledge of useful things right on our campus.

I wish I would have known how time consuming football season really was, but you learn to love it!

I wish I had known more about how I could start getting involved.

The one thing I wish i knew was to explore more majors more thoroughly because by the middle of your sophomore year and beginning of your junior year it becomes a daunting task to switch to something else. Also i wish more people would have stressed to me the importance of joining organizations.

One of the things that I wish that someone had told me was that living in the dorms in your first year is one of the most important decisions that you can make. I have come across so many fellow students, both who have lived on and off campus in their freshman year and the general consensus seems to be that your first year will be fundamentally different if you don't live on campus that year. There are so many activities thrown by the dorm area governments and your floor RA(resident assistant) just so that you and your new fellow Gators can get to know each other. You are way more likely to get involved on campus if you already live there. Best choice ever!

I wish I had known not to be intimidated by the size at first. The more time you spend on campus, the more comfortable you will feel. Also, there are many people and resources at the University of Florida that will help you settle in and get situated.

What I wished I had learned before I came to this school is the fact that I should have taken alot of dual enrollment classes, so that I would have just started right into my major and graduate early. I also would have wanted to know how hard this really was going to be and how studying everyday and going to tutoring is always the best thing to do.

How to register for classes and decide which classes to choose for my career.
