What Students Are Saying

Don't be too nervous when you first start. It's really not as bad as you think. I was terrified and there was no reason to be. The peer adviser you get for the first semester and orientation team is really nice, don't be afraid to ask them questions. Don't worry about making a fool of yourself during orientation (especially not Playfair!). Everyone is nervous and if one person can start to make jokes, everyone will be more comfortable.

Alissa from Cheektowaga, NY

Make sure a small sized campus is truly where you want to be. Meet as many people as you can and always open your mind to new opportunities. Stay on top of your studies, work hard, and above all; have fun!
