Get evrything you need or collge EARLY. The quicker you get it done, the less you hav to panic at the last minute. Also just be prepared to see how other people see things, dont be judgemental when you hear something different for the first time. Just listen to what they have to say and take it in and think about it, then if you have something to say then say it. The more you study in huigh school the easier the transition to college will be. Make sure to at least take your book home and at the least read the chapter or the section you went over in class. Lastly, be very open-mided and be friendly and ake a ton of friends on the field and in the class rooms.

My advice would be to really take your high school time more serious. Often times it is easy to think about what is going on in the present time and not think about what is going to happen in the future. When the time comes when you don't feel like doing your homework, do it anyway. It may not seem like a big deal to fail a test, but it will be an even bigger deal later down the line. Lastly, make every day count. Take the initiative to do your best and don't let anything stop you from being your best you.

From the start I did not receive the “traditional” high school experience and I knew in the end that it would pay off. I still attend high school here in my hometown, but aside from that I am attending college courses at my local community college. From the first day of classes I thought that I would find it difficult to adjust to the college atmosphere, but my parents told me I was mature enough to handle it.

When i was on my recruiting visit the coach told me as simple as this. "We all know college is expensive and you might be in student loans, but when you go back home your buddy is going to be driving that same peice of crap around because he did not go to college you will have education ready to make the BIG bucks. College is a needed investment". It is valuable to attend because it is a investment in your life and a experience that will always be with you.

I've gained more independence, courage, and responsibility than I ever imagined from being in college. I have learned that if I want to make good grades, I have to work hard for them, they are not just given. Having to pay for my college education on my own has made me want to make the best grades I can, because I do not want to waste my money. I have learned to be more out going in college. College is valuable to attend not because of educational benefits alone but because of how much life experience you gain as well.
