College requires more self-motivation, time management, and studying than high school, so be sure to put in as much effort as you can!<\/p><\/div>\n

Submission by <\/b>Cindy R.<\/span><\/p>\n

A tip for incoming freshmen is to really put in more effort towards your studies than you did in high school. It doesn\u2019t really matter if you are coming in as a straight A student because expectations are different in college; everything moves much faster and with less hand-holding. <\/span><\/p>\n

I learned this the hard way during my first year. <\/span><\/p>\n

Even though I am someone who puts effort into my work, I have bad habits such as poor time management and I despise studying (since it was never really crucial for me to study so much\u00a0in high school). These bad habits brought both my grades and I down.<\/p>\n

College is a different experience so don\u2019t expect it to be like high school academically.<\/span><\/p>\n
