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

JADA

One thing I wish someone would have told me about freshman year is to save money. Freshman year I always found myself spending money on things such as food. Yes food is satisfying, but at the end of the day I only lasted for so long. I should have been a smart and saved my money for a down payment on a car or for a rainy day.

That Virginia State was in the "middle of know where". I had known how bad the crime was on the campus, and how the residence halls are in poor condition.

Samone

That the students are not pushed as hard and it is very unorganized.

I wish I had known about some of their resident hall rules, which I don't entirely agree with.

The only thing I wish I has know before comming to Virginia State University is that they were building a new dorm beside my dorm. I wish I had known this because sometimes they make a lot of noise while working on the new dorm. While they are working I sometimes can't foucs on my work.

I wish someone would have told me that my school was not in a city (I'm not from the city but only about 10minutes from DC) and that there was a slim chance of getting a job because I had to take out loans since I couldn't find a job.

The things that I wish I would have known before going to college was that having a lot of freedom is not as good as it sounds. Sometimes it is overwhelming living on your own without family. I also wish I had a better understanding of people which include their actions and emotions becauuse there are a lot of different people that come from different places and experiences in college.

Before I came to this school I wish I knew that most of the classes are not that challenging. I planned to attend a school that would test my knowlege of what I learned before I attended it and while I attended it, I dont feel challegend.
