University of Missouri-Columbia Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Shaina

Not that i would of liked to have known, but i wish i would of took more dual credit in high school.

Dan

What I wanted my majors to be, that way I could have put more focus on them my Freshman year. Also that I should have taken AP credit courses in High School.

Andrea

I wish that I had known to take harder courses like biology at a community college. I also wish that I had prepared myself more for the ACT because I was literally 5 points away from gaining the George C. Brooks scholarship which is a major scholarship which would have made paying for school easier.

Nichole

I wish I had known more about the availability of off-campus housing.

Cassandra

I was a little nervous coming here because I'm from such a small town, so I wish that I would have known that even though Mizzou is a decently big school, it isn't scary at all.

Megan

I wish I would have known that they had the Archtectural Studies program, so that I could have started with that major my freshman year.

Bobbie

I wish I had known the exact major I wanted to study. I came to UM-Columbia for Photojournalism but I didn't realize that the Journalism was so competitive so I have since changed my major four times, forcing me to push back my graduation date a full semester. I guess it's not that big of a deal... I really like it here. :)
