Take a tour. They have several scheduled thought the year or you can schedule your own. Also, find the advisor for your major and speak to them; they can and will work with your schedule when scheduling classes. Get the colleges scholarship book. They have many many scholarships. Also, if you are going to be a culinary student like me you should get a tour if the culinary cafe. The college owned restaurant.

Get in a program that requires work, it'll be the only way you're not in classes with a bunch of idiots.

You won't make a lot of friends on campus, but you'll get what you need to get done.

Start getting everything taken care of before the first day of class, if you wait then everyone else who waited is going to be in the offices trying to handle everything all at once. Its just a better idea to be prepared.

Do not be afraid to go to the different advisors that are availble to help you. They are more then willing to help you on any education questions you need.
