Describe your college experience
Everything you could expect but 10x better. In my situation I moved 5 hours away to a place where I had no family, no friends, and I had only toured on my orientation day a few weeks before move in. Sounds scary right? But everything works out I met some amazing people, had a free trip to Disney and universal, got to see a live concert at my school and just many more memories that I won't ever forget.
Tip for future students
Get your work done first. Trust me its never a good feeling knowing that you missed an assignment, I understand wanting to go out and have fun but you gotta remember that you're in college to get your degree. Now that I've cleared that up I gotta say go out and have fun explore the community make connections just be sure to not go against your moral compass. There is a lot of weirdos in college and a lot of situations you won't expect. Be safe call your parents if you need to and have a great school year.
Favorite class
My favorite class was Development psychology because all the topics really and truly relate back to life whether it be our needs or the way we view situations.
Career goals
I want to be a CRNA (Certified Registered Nurse Anesthesiologist)
Ideal way to spend a free night
Getting my work done, hanging out with friends, playing basketball, eating good food, making brownie Sundays, and going out.

Previous college
