The best advice that I would give to myself about making a transition into college life is that not everybody on campus and at the school is going to be my friend. I should not automatically trust everyone and tell them my life story, for in a couple of days we might not still be friends. In addition, I will tell myself that I should always, no matter what, put my homework and other schoolwork before going out and having night of fun. Because at the day of the day, I went to college for an educational and degree and if I don't finish doing my homeowork, it will cause my GPA to be lower than it should be and I wouldn't be able to succeed well in school.

Make sure that when you get to college, you become as outgoing as possible. Become known around campus so that you will have some pull. Make sure you do not slack in anything you do; there is no time for error at all. Do not get all the way to your fourth year and let everything just fall down hill. Keep a focused mind set and you will succeed.

We willing to understand that this is a transition and know that the best is yet to come. Things may go bad, but they can only get better.

I would have to say it isn't an easy transition. Just be ready for the unexpected, and do the best you can. No one will be there to wake you up, so on my own, I have to get up on time everyday for classes. Everything, EVERYTHING, is up to me when I step onto that campus. My mom will not be here, nor will my dad. Everything from here on out, is up to me.

The number one thing that I would tell myself would be to make sure that i focus on my studies as much as I socialize and party. Also I would tell myself to take advantage of any and every scholarship and financial aid opportuinity that comes my way because school is very expensive.

Stay away from alot of girls, get a decent gpa all throughtout high school, apply for all scholarships, stay away from loans, and if you don't want to be the best at what you are going to school for, don't do it.

Don't forget, even for a second, why you are in school. Never give up, you'll regret it.

To take AP class and get the college credit and to do your work in high school so you are able to get scholarship. Your work ethics in high school will help decide how easy thing will be in college.

The advice i would give to parents and students about finding the right college would be to take there time. they should let the student pick the schools in which best suits there acedemic needs. this will help the student get the best education needed. also, make sure you findout all there is to know about the school, finacially and acedemically. parents should attend all oreintation with the student to ensure maximum understanding of the school and all that it offers. this will help to ensure that the parent and student are fully aware of what the school require of them.
