Get involved on campus. Great clubs and student organizations.

Always remain focused. Study hard for exams. Don't just settle for a passing grade!

Start your paperwork early so that you can make any changes or arrangements you need. ALWAYS ask questions if your not sure of something.

Check into being involved in extracurricular activities....there is many activities on campus offered with great scholarships to go with them. Make sure and call or visit the campus prior to registration to gather all necessary information and dealines. Visit the office of recruitment & orientation AKA River Navigator office. They will give you a tour of the campus and any/all other information requested.

First off let me say go to a college that you really want to be at or you probably wont be there long. Always ask questions about anything and everything there is never a stupid question. Most off all get started early with all your paperwork for college so that you have a better chance at getting in and getting what you want. Take advantage of any learning centers they are usually free and can only help with your grades or even understanding how to use the school system. This is for the first time students out of high school remember that you may be out on your own for the first time and everything is so new your new found freedom especially but you are also the only one held responsible for any class, work homework and test so when you are asked do you want to go out tonight ask yourself one thing can your grades afford for you to go out or should you stay in and study tonight and go out a different night.
