What advice do you have for prospective students applying to college? Take tons of notes when visiting a college and ask tons of questions! I would always carry a little notepad with me on college tours and asked tons of questions to see if I could picture myself at that college. 

What’s one thing you wish you knew before coming to college? A college schedule can be demanding so it’s important to stay organized. Once you get your syllabus in a class, input dates into your calendar of both the small and large assignments.
