Wesley College Top Questions

My college experience has opened my eyes to the endless possibilities I can allow myself to choose from. I have learned to be more social and my hands on abilities in the nursing field have greatly improved since I have a great variety of tutors, equipment and willing to work with me type of professors. There are an endless amount of clubs and organizations to be apart of and the school is not too big and not too small. I have made life long friends and I hope to continue to attend this college for the remaining 3 years.

First thing I am getting out of my college experience is education. All of my teachers want to see to their students succeed. All of the works that the teachers give are not always easy but there is always help to be found. If the teacher is not able to help there are tutors that help the school pays for, so they are free for the students. Making friends is also an important part of the college experience. For the most part the friends that are made in college are the lifelong friends, and from personal experience these friends are very helpful and supportive. They are the ones that want u to succeed and become successful. These experiences have been so valuable because it helps build skills that I will need for life, such as social skills, work habits, and time management skills. This is a step taken towards completing my future goals.

Out of my college experience, I have gotten the chance to be apart of a completely different community where every body knows everybody. The Wesley community is small. I have made great relationships not only with all my professors but with almost all the students. Going to college and to get through to graduation takes much dedication, involvement and hard work. I have volunteered, along with other students at Wesley College, to rebuild a playground for children at a nearby church. It feels good to have done that. It has been valuable to attend college because I have gained self confidence, I learned how to be independent, yet not turn down a helping hand. It has been valuable for me also because I learned how to manage time to study and know when and when not to play. College is a one of a kind experience that I am happy to have had and continue to be apart of. I think that everyone should try college whether he/she lives on campus, which is a fun experience, or not. My college experience overall is valuable and is something that will carry me on to huge success. I love college.

I made a family at Wesley, just before I attended college, I lost my grandmother, and the year before I lost my father, I was lost, but then I arrived at Wesley, and I instantly fell in love with the campus, the students, the faculty, everything. my roommates are really good and fun people, and I call everyone in my dorm building a friend. Wesley is a very small college, I can walk across campus in less than ten minutes, and that's a good thing, I feel like I know everyone on campus, and I feel completely safe and free at the same time. I am gaining a valuable education at a great school, but I have already gained family and friends whom I will never forget, the experiences I have attained at Wesley have helped to shape me as a person and I wouldn't change anything at this college, not a single person or even a single blade of grass.

I have received many things out of my college experience from Wesley College. One of the most important things I have received is a sense of belonging. Somehow Wesley has been able to compile a group of professors that really seem to love what they are doing. Their excitement translates into lectures that so interesting which makes coming to class exciting. The administration from President Johnston on down tries to get to know the students on a first name basis and they have an open door policy. As a result of encouragement of President Johnston and some of my professors I am very involved in student organizations. I am the Freshman Class Representative for the Student Nurses Association, the Student Government Representative for the International Students Association and a member of the Student Activity Board. These experiences have helped me to become more organized and build long lasting memories. I feel that I am getting the most out of my college education and I really enjoy going to school! This has been and will continue to be extremely valuable to me because I am having fun while learning so what I learn is sinking in more!

If I could rewind this past year, I would not know what to tell myself. College is a whole other ball-game, but I?ve felt well prepared for it. High school appropriately prepared me for the college life and I have no complaints. Wesley is a good college; the teachers that I?ve had so far have been wonderful. The only thing that I would prefer to change is my social life, but that?s not as important as academics!

I would tell myself to prepare for a number of costly books and the transition from dependency to being independent. I would tell myself to find a job to support income for books and other personal items. Getting to know people is very important when in need of help. You never know who's willing to help if you don't ask. Seek help! If you need help academically financially no matter what the circumstances find it; there is always someone who can help you. Prepare yourself for a different lifestyle. You will meet new people with different origins and different view on life, race and religion. Studying and staying on top of your grades is a must in order to be successful and become a grade student. Hard work and dedication is the key when striving for excellence.

The advice that I would give myself is make have time management. Now that I am in school, I procrastinate a lot. Students need to study more and not worry about partying with my friends because that comes later. Partying will not get me the degree I need to be successful so that is why I need to study more and pay attention a lot better in class. I need to put the books first because that is where I will get my knowlege from.

I would tell myself to save up money and change because when it comes to living on your own you never know when you will need extra cash or change. second i would tel my self to learn how to study because, a lot of proffesors assume that you read and study the material on your own which is why they dont really tell you what is on the test. Also, i would tell myself to try my hardest on every assignment given. This is because unlike high shool colleges are not required to give you a certain amount of assignments. In college very few assignments are given and one bad grade can kill you. Last i would tell myself to not procrastinante because procrastinating only adds to the stress that you will feel on a day to day basis and the longer you procrastinate the more stress will build up. plus the longer you work on an asignment, the better it is likely to be. This is because you are giving yourslef chances to find mistakes and review your ideas.

If I could go back in time and talk to myself as a high school senior I would tell myself to expect a big difference from being in high school to being a college student. I would tell myself to get well aquainted with studying and time management. In high school you are in school for eight hours a day with classes every 57-minutes. However, in college you will probably have only four hours of class per day leaving you with a lot of time on your hands that you might not know what to do with. This is why time management is a great quality to start working on while still a high school student. Some advice I would give myself would be to start preparing early. I would tell myself to choose schools early and start looking for grants and scholarships that you can use to help you out financially. Late planning gets you off to a late start. Who wants to be a new student at a new school who is already behind? Not me. Thats why I advise you to get on top of your game.
