Any advice for my freshman year at college?

I'm excited but quite nervous! 😬

Try and get to know people you're living with. I made great friends my freshman year who are still my friends now that I've been been graduated for almost a year.

Try and join a club or two. College is a great place to find out what you're interested in. Interests may develop as you're there. Clubs can lead to something to put on a resume.

Go to office hours and get to know professors. I got to know some early in my freshman year whom I ended up knowing for the duration of my undergrad experience. I'm applying to grad school now and they've agreed to write letters of rec.

But yeah, have fun. I was pretty nervous and shy, but you only get one shot at being a college freshman. Make the most of it. :)
