What should every freshman at Union College-Lincoln know before they start?

I believe that you should choose a college that fits you. Go to a school that offers what you want. Don't just go to a school that you've always wanted to go to. If you go there and it doesn't have your degree or it's not what you expected you lose time. When choosing a college make sure you visit. Get a feel for where you will be living and going to school. I think this is improtant so that you feel comfortable because I truly believe if you're not comfortable with your surroundings it's harder to succeed. Choosing a college is a hard thing but once you've found the one for you it's so exciting! You can make the most of your college experience by not being afraid to try new things. Make sure and go to join clubs. The memories you make are the memories you'll have forever. Also, don't forget to study because the grades you get you'll have those forever too. Also I'd like to mention that if you ever in doubt, just go for it! You don't want to have any regrets.

Life is what you make of it. While I feel that I could have received a better education elsewhere, I do not regret attending the school I did. Instead, I got to know people well, and opened my mind to their ideas. While I was unchallenged in the classroom, I utilized the internet and used bookstores to dig deeper into subjects that interested me and expand my worldview. I discovered resources in my community on my own, even though my school experience was culturally and socially limited. Regardless of where you are accepted or choose to attend school, concentrate on understanding the people around you and learning from them, and you will grow and succeed.

Make sure you look into all aspects of the colleges you are looking at and make sure that it fits you. Dont just look at academic, social is important to, if you dont feel like you are part of the school and you dont fit in then it will be no fun and your grades will suffer.

When you get to school, don't worry about being popular. It's not like high school, you don't have to impress anyone. And don't get too wraped up in studying, have some fun.
