Seattle Pacific University Top Questions

What's the one thing you wish someone had told you about freshman year?

Max

There are not that many good looking girls

Kiona

I wish i had known that time is vauable and it needs to be savored. You may thing you have all this free time, but you don't. That time that you have for so many hours after class is ment for studying and actually doing your homework. In college all the work is on you. No one is going to push you to do it unless you have some really close friends that care about you and will tell you to do it. Besides them your on your own to ask people for help and support.

Anthony

this school is fairly straight forward

Shelby

It take longer than a few weeks to get adjusted.

Kelly

I wish i had known about running start. I think it is a great opportunity and helps you get ahead in your college education. Rather than coming in as a freshman with zero credits, you can come in with credits and technically be a sophomore. More credits also help when registering for classes because the more credits you have the earlier you can register.

Mckenzie

I wish I had known how much more expensive it was going to get. Tuition keeps rising and financial aid doesn't keep up. Thankfully I have state work-study so finding my jobs was a little easier. I also wish I had known to get a laptop right from the start--desktops don't belong in dorm rooms.

Erin

I wish I knew how much I would learn and how much I would be challenged academically, spiritually, and mentally. It has been a wonderful growing experience but I did not know before I came how much I would actually grow and change.

Evangeline

I wish I had been more certain about what type of career I want when I grow up before spending tuition money.

Ajia

I wish before coming to Seattle Pacific University I had known the culture of each of the dorms and had more options of where I could live i.e. off campus or not. I also wish I had known how great a city Seattle is and that it is a good idea to bring a car to school for activities and a little more freedom to get off campus.

Alison

That alot of students lead very hypocritical lives. Also which professors are the best on campus.
