Personally, I wish I would have known the requirements of applying to F.A.M.U.'s College of Pharmacy as a freshman. Instead, I had to choose another major and take those courses that correspond to those of the Pharmacy curriculum and wait to apply.

Nothing.

I researched my school before I made my choice.

The financial aid situation

Growing up is hard to do. Always check, check, and re-check when it comes to money. Keep your receipts.

I wish I would have had a better understanding of money management before I set foot on FAMU's campus. I came to college from a fairly poor family so my budget was not very large. I mismanaged my funds and before the first month was over I was calling my mother for food money. I think that school should put in a finance class into high school senior curriculum so that they can be better prepared to take on the task of handling funds for survival.

That the school wasn't very helpful.

I wish I had known about how much their out-of-state tuition was and how horrible they are toward us with financial aid issues. Out-of-state students pay over $545 per credit hour compare to $105 per credit hour for in-state students. In-state students recieve more financial aid awards than out-of-state who may have a better GPA standing as well as a more financial need.
