What should every freshman at Wright State University-Main Campus know before they start?

Aaron

The advice I would give myself now would be to stay focused, and just try my best in college.

Jessica

If I could go back in time to my senior year, I would tell myself to save as much money as I can and to make as many friends as possible with different cultural backgrounds. I already have the motavation and skill to do my work and set goals, but I could not make friends easily and I believe that is something that I should have worked on. We didn't have much culture differences either, especially when growing up in a small town. Wright State University has many people with different cultures and I love it, so its a shame I did not have those experiences earlier in my life. To have saved more money would help me pay my college bills. Education is more important then going to the movies or out to eat. By saving money and having more interaction with different people would have made me more set for college.

I would tell myself not to go to schools just because a friend or boyfriend is there. Find a school that has all the needs I want. Also not to pick a school just because you may not know anyone thats going there, because most of the people there will be experiancing the same.

If there is a chance to spend the weekend at your College of choice, take the opportunity! Or even stay the weekend on campus with a friend. This will give you a better insight on what the next four years will be like.

Take several visits to the top colleges of your choice. The second time I went to a place, I didn't like it nearly as much. Also, don't stick it out at a place you are unhappy, because it will affect your grades, mood, socail life, and overall happiness... In the end, you are the one who has to be there for the 2 or 4 years, or possibly more, so make sure it is a place YOU want to be, and everyone has good intentions when they give you advice, but in the end, listen to yourself more than anyone.

It would be nice to go to the most prestigous college in America, but pick the college that gives you the most because no matter what school you chose, college is what YOU make it!

I would tell them to do as much research about thier colleges that they are considering as much as possible. I would tell them to look at thier fees and rates. analyze thier staff and faculty and see how helpful and accurate they are. I would tell them to look at thier impact on the business world and to check out what they have to offer not only on campus but off campus as well. And to make the most out of college is GET INVOLVED!

Kayla

I would advise students to take tours of the campuses that intest them. On their tours I suggest that these students talk to the students attending the campus that way they can really get a feel of the college. I also would advise new students to reach out to others and make new friends. I also suggest that they join a club. Classes seem easier when you have friends to help you or disscuss the lecture with.

Have fun and think what is the best choice for you
