Rashanda

I came to ODU as a second degree student, which doesn't require orientation. I wish that orientation had been mandatory because I've had to learn many things from my fellow students.

Paola

I wish I knew that they were doing renovations to the school. Although it's for the better, i've been through schools with renovations since I was in elementary school so I would have enjoyed not being surrounded by construction. I also would have liked to know to invest in money for food because the cafeteria food isn't so great but everything else that you have to pay for seperately is so much better.

Maria

I wish I had known more about the programs that are offered.

Bryan

I wish I had realized the value of community colleges for first two years and the importance of campus security. If you don't feel safe, you won't go out and engage in activities among other students.

Destiny

I wish I would have been informed more about the scholarship programs that are being offered. I also wished I would have known how horrible the parking and flooding is in the area. I took orientation but I had more questions to ask after I started the first day of class.

I wish I had known more about the different business majors and what course work they entail. I was unaware of some of the classes that were unable to transfer from my other college eeven though they had a transfer agreement.

I wish I had known more about the neighborhoods surrounding Old Dominion University. In my opinion, they are not the safest neighborhoods, and thus, I do not feel comfortable taking night classes.
