I wish I had known how to be a more confident person so that I would not have wasted time meeting new people once I arrived at college.

The possibilities are endless. I also wish I would have known that it's okay to be yourself and put yourself "out there". Unlike high school, you must be your true self at college to gain a great college experience. I havce found this at the University of Evansville.
