Running to Class
After being told for twelve years to not be a second late, it might be a shock that its normal for students to be 2-3 minutes late for class everyday! So if you woke up late, don’t fret, just get to class!
The Fear of Missing a Class
Eventually you will be faced with the option of skipping a class – It WILL happen. Not that it’s recommended, but it will not be the end of the world if you miss a class, just don’t do it often! Keep in mind that, while skipping school is fun, posting about it might bite you in the ass in the future (cool story, bro)!
Social Media Stupidity
Being independent is great, and maybe you want to share all of the fun you had over the weekend with your friends! However, it is very important to keep your digital image squeaky clean, so that when a recruiter looks at your profile, they aren’t discouraged. Any upperclassman would tell you the same thing! Share your fun moments with buddies over a group chat app, like Quad, to keep your conversations personal and private!
Unused Meal Plans
So many freshmen just don’t realize how great meal plan is until you are no longer on it. Make sure that, as the school year goes on, you are taking advantage of the cash on your account – Even if it means treating yourself every now and then to a coffee, use it ALL up!
Thinking College is Solely About Academics!
There is a reason you are not enrolled in the University of Phoenix – Because you want MORE than just an education from your school! The best way to get the full experience is becoming involved on campus. Join a club, a sport, or go Greek! Even if you just check them out, at least you know what’s out there!
