I bombed my first college experience 7 years ago, spent 4 years in the Marine Corps and walked away with a 4.0 in fall 2012. Grow up and mature much? Haha.

Go out of state!
Go someplace warm!
I have a bunch of other things I could add, but let's just start there.
go somewhere where you see yourself having fun and being comfortable
University of Hawaii. A girl I was dating around 2003, her daughter was looking into colleges and found it was cheaper to go there than to go to either KU or K-State and a resident student!Get away from home.
Also, the out of state talk is real. I didn't go OOS, but a lot of times you can get scholarships to cover the OOS portion so it costs the same as an in state school, fyi
Me too. College is really freaking hard. Did not see it coming.
That's so true! I would hate when I would tell my Marketing friends that I was having an open-book exam and they thought it was going to be easy. You don't understand how difficult a professor can make a question until they let you use an entire textbook to solve it, and you still don't get it all right
Agreed. It's annoying how difficult some stuff can be. You think it's easy and you're fine, then get rocked by a test.
College is coming up fast for me and I'm gonna have a bazillion questions to ask. Plenty of THPers are in college or recently graduated so I can't think of somewhere better to turn to for help. I just got back from a visit to U of Michigan and it is on the top of my list. My chances of getting in are solid so my biggest thing is what the heck do I do when I get there? How does one deal with a crappy roommate? How long does it take to get into the swing of things?
For comical reasons I'd also love to hear funny stories. My dad has told me some of the funniest things I've ever heard from college but he's out of material.

I'm taking classes there next year to knock out gen eds (senior in HS next yr). Anything special I'd need to know for three hours or so a day?

Sorry I missed this. Get there early the first day. Parking can be horrendous depending on the time of the day. Lines of cars 3 blocks long waiting to park.

Can't speak specifically for UofM but based on my experience, there are ways around roommates AND living on campus.College is coming up fast for me and I'm gonna have a bazillion questions to ask.

Not living on campus as a freshman would be a huge mistake. I'm glad many schools are requiring it now.
I went the ungodly expensive private liberal arts school route. Let me know if you need any tips/information regarding that path, haha.
Seriously though, some great advice in this thread. You'll do well no matter what!

Agreed. It's a must.
