Describe your college experience
The transition to college was definitely a big adjustment for me— but one that was necessary. By my second semester, I began to feel a lot more acclimated to campus life, but it definitely took a while,, and that’s ok!
Tip for future students
Really do your research (you are your best advisor)—so come into college with a couple majors and courses in mind. Pursue long-term interests —if you already have an idea of what you like, don’t get too sidetracked by curiosity. You can explore these other paths by going to talks or joining low commitment extracurriculars. Always remember to be graceful and take breaks :))
