“I think as soon as you decide where you’re going to college, it’s important to get a jump-start on course and career planning. Talk to your academic advisor and any current students you may know and think about meaningful ways to use the summer between high school and college. This will help make the transition to college easier.”
“Don’t worry too much about making your first year perfect. Some of your best memories may come from having a quirky roommate or living in a dorm that far away from your classes. You’ll learn to appreciate your unique circumstances regardless of how the details work out.”
“The biggest piece of advice I can give is to find balance. This will help you succeed academically and mentally.”
