10 Things Every Incoming Freshman Needs To Know About College

I got 99 problems and they're all due at 11:59PM to Blackboard.

1. High school does not prepare you for college.

HIGH SCHOOL IS NOTHING COMPARED TO COLLEGE.

No more babying, no more turning in assignments late, no more bribing teachers with food. When it's due, it's due.

2. Sleep is crucial.

Remember those naps in Kindergarten that you never used to take? You'll be wishing for those. Every. Single. Day.

3. DON'T TAKE AN 8AM

Unless you are an early bird, don't do it. Just don't.

When you're up at 3AM writing that research paper, you'll regret it.

4. Time Management.

Don't freak out. The work becomes very overwhelming. Learn to use your time wisely. Make time for studying and homework, but don't forget to make time for yourself as well.

5. Treat yo self.

Don't let the school work overpower the time you need to spend on yourself. Take a day off, eat ice cream, watch Netflix. Don't stay stuck in the bubble of school work.

6. Get a gym membership.

If your school or apartment doesn't have a gym, find one. The freshmen fifteen is real. And it's coming for you,

7. Money, money, money.

College is where money disappears. Fast. Buy a newspaper. Cut coupons. You'll thank me later.

8. Do not procrastinate.

Don't wait until 10 to start writing your paper that's due at 11:59. Anything could happen.

9. Textbooks

Textbooks are expensive. Make friends. Share books.

10. Have fun.

But not too much fun.
