I wish I would have known more about thier Greek Life program, and how to get invovled.

I wish i had known that college is more stressful because of the amount of work and how little of time you get to complete that work, however i think the amount they give us in that little amount of time is a challenge for us and i think it's worth the stress.

I wish I would have knowwn more about the cost of everything. That way I could have saved up more money for books, food, etc.

I feel I was inadequately prepared for exactly how different college life is compared to high school. In high school, an individual is given a fairly minimal amount of responsibility compared to the amount given to you in college. That's why I feel that so many students become overwhelmed at first, including myself. Had it not been for my advisor, my professors, and the wonderful health department, I may have not easily overcome such a hurdle.

Not many students stay on campus during the weekend so there are not many programs or activities going on.

Before I came to this school I wish I would have known that the NKU Grant County Center only offers your first 2 years of classes.

I wish I had known about the scholarship because it would be very helpful to me and my family right now. I am working as a nail technician right now. Working full time and having to worry about school is difficult. Another thing I wish I had known is buying books online because campus books are expensive.

I wish I had known that there aren't many jobs opportunities for just a BA degree in my field.
