What Students Are Saying

Make sure that you look at the school before you come! It is a commuter school so on weekends a lot of people go home, but there is always something to do. The advisors are helpful too if the major you want isn't offered or you are undecided.
Anna from Woonsocket, RI
SAT and ACT are very important. You need to make sure you have the right requirements for this school because they will send you an letter asking you to take it again.
Lauren from Greensboro, NC
Don't be afraid to ask for help.
Caira from Harrisburg, NC
Visit the campus to get a feel for the environment. Meet with the department that your major is with to find out if that is what you want to do. Do not party a lot because you will get behind in your classes.
Oscar from Monroe, NC
Buy good shoes and expect to walk a lot because this campus is huge! Stairs and hills will not be your friend for the first couple weeks but the view makes it worth it.
Heather from Sanford, NC
Take the SAT multiple times because the different programs look at that and it can save you from having to take other tests to get into a particular program. Make sure you look at who the teachers are before you register for their classes because some of them do not like what they teach so they make the course impossible. Get involved on campus
Katherine from Winston-Salem, NC
When entering college, go with an open mind. Nothing is going to be the same as home and this could actually, whether you believe it or not, do you some good. To get away from the everyday and to be out on your own is a feeling like no other in the world.
Caitlin from Broadway, NC
Plan out your scheduele, get a planner, join a sorority/fraternity, try new things, push yourself out of your comfort zone, go to every event you can go to.
Lauren from Crown Point, IN
Make sure to attend class when ever you can. You will see a definite positive difference in your GPA if you do. Do all of your homework. In College, you teach yourself most of the time through the text books and home works. Doing the home work will help to master the material in preparation for exams. Finally, practice time management skills. Work loads can get big fast. Be sure to be responsible and stay on top of your course load. These tips can and will help you to succeed in your first semester of college.
Joshua from Harrisburg, NC
The campus is pretty big so walking will be a requirement in order to get to your classes. Also leave early to be on time for class since the campus is big. Most importantly take advantage of all the opportunities and events that go on around the campus, you will really enjoy them!
