I wish I had known about financial aid so I could have started and nearly have graduated before the economy started crashing.

The expenses outside of college

I wish I would have known just how challenging a major in nutrition could be. Most people would think that a major in nutrition wouldn't be that challenging, but it is extremeley rigorous. I am not sure that I would have chosedn the same career path. I am very glad that I am almost done though.

I wish I had known that you are expected to be proactive in your studies and social life. If you want to earn good grades, you need to take the initiative. The professors here are not going to approach you about your academic progress. Also, if you want to be involved in the social life here, you need to take that first step to find out what is available and go for what interest you.

I wish I would have known that much more responsibility falls on you than ever before, yet you begin to learn SO much about yourself in doing so.

Before I came to the University of Nevada, Reno, I wish I would have known how hard it would be to be apart from my family. College is a tremendous learning experience, since for most people it is the first time they are living away from their parents. I wish that I had known that everything I did in college (both good and bad) would stick around with me. You learn from all your experiences, and you need to think long and hard before making big decisions to ensure that you choose what is right for yourself.

I wish that I had known more about the food services and how to get into athletic events as well as clubs.

That all people want to do here is party. I don't like it.

The only thing that I wish I had known about this school before I came was how many extra curricular activities and opportunities there really are to be involved in. Many people just think we are a small school in a small town, but we actually have many good educational programs and activities on and off campus for students to get involved in.

I wish I had known that the students do not take their education seriously.
