College is filled with ups and downs. You have good days and bad days but overall I have transitioned well and have met some truly amazing people.
Tip for future students
Don't expect to do as well as you did in high school. College is hard and everyone is struggling. The work is worth the reward.

I love Jewish Civilizations! The class was fascinating.
