How important it is to get involved. Once involved, you meet so many people and are motivated to exceed in your school work.

Neither of my parents received college degrees, and I attended a small private high school. Consequently, I lacked the resources for proper college preparation. Having been accepted to more prestigious schools, I settled for Wichita State because of financial concerns. Would I have possessed some scholarship savvy, I might have acquired the funds to afford a more rigorous education.

I wish I had known about all the resources the Wichita State University campus has to offer its students. I don't believe students are aware of the resources that could help them progress academically. There should be a class that focuses on teaching students about resources of the university and how to use them to the fullest.

That is was non-traditional.

Do not procrastinate on school assignments. The day you get an assignment begin working on because the longer you put it off the harder it will be to do.

Before I went to WSU I wish I had had a better idea of what major I wanted to persue. I could have been able to focus my classes towards my major and eliminated the lower level courses earlier on in my schooling.

I think Wichita State University can do a better job to help new students familiarize with the campus. I wish I would have had more guidance from my general education advisor. I do not think I was given enough information about graduation deadlines, advising, etc.
