What should every freshman at your school know before they start?
Advice to my former high school self,
I want to tell you to be BRAVE. In college you will meet many new people, you will have many opportunities, and you will experience growth both personally and academically. Be brave and do not let your fear of the unknown dissuade you from trying new things and taking the leap of faith that may be necessary.
I want to tell you to be CONFIDENT. Remember what you are good at, don't just focus on what you struggle with. We all have strengths and weaknesses, they are part of what makes us human. Take the time to puff out your chest and pat yourself on the back, you are good enough, you are smart enough, and you got this!
I want to tell you to BREATHE. Take a moment and just breathe. Remember that it is okay to take a moment for yourself and just relax. Actually, do it... now... put the book down, walk away from that computer and take a deep breath. Your work will be better for it, just trust me on this one.
Lastly, I want to remind you to ENJOY. Enjoy the experience of a lifetime.

What do you consider the worst thing about your school? Why?
Upon atttending Aurora University I wish I would have recieved more guidance when it came to the financial aid process. The school itself did not help me with the process and I was extremely lost and upset with my financial sitiuation. Once the school knew I was atttending and recieved my deposit I was all alone from there, they did not seem to care in the student account office about my situation and unfourtantetly did nothing to help.

The best thing about Aurora University is its' size and tight knit enviornment. There are about 2,000 undergraduate students here. I liked this because I knew that when I began attending classes I would get much more one on one attention and really be able get the most out of my education. One of my favorite things about this campus is that everyone knows everyone and as a student you never feel left out or uncomfortable. The smaller atmosphere is really what attracted me to Aurora University.

What kind of person should not attend this school?
A person who is looking to party every night and likes hiding in the back of the classroom. Our class sizes are no bigger than 30 people. Although, Students of Aurora University do have parties, if you are the kind of student who would rather party that study, Aurora University is not the best choice for you. Students do go out and party and have fun, but it is not likely to happen every night when a student is trying to keep up with their studies and class work.

Here's your chance: Say anything about your college!
Aurora University has a close-knit community feel to it. As a small school, students are able to develop great relationships with their peers, professors, and others on campus. This is extremely beneficial, not only in terms of developing long-lasting relationships, but educationally as well. Because of the small size of AU, students are able to benefit from working closely with their professors. This helps with learning, but is also a great way to network and branch out for job possibilities in the future.
