Have a plan from the beginning to end of your enrollment on what classes you want to take and your goals. Schedule appointments with counselors often so you don't stray off track. Don't slack off just because it is a community college.

Sign up for mutiple classes and find out what interests you. Take advantage of the great teachers who are willing to help you.

Very early in you college career, talk to a counselor about classes needed to finish to graduate. Rent your textbooks either online or at the campus bookstore. Accept the free help from the tutoring center.
