Don’t be afraid to admit when you’re struggling, everyone struggles at some point in college. Most colleges have free tutors, I always signed up for that even if the class easy, it helps solidify ideas and if it’s an easy A it just makes it that much easier. Remember to take care of yourself, food, social life, girlfriend/boyfriend, shower. Please remember to shower, my schools BCA grads would never shower and got a real bad rep lmao. If you’ve never worked out before consider using your schools most likely free gym, those gyms are super well equipped and it’s very helpful for mental health. The freshmen 15 is very real and you will gain weight if you don’t either workout or watch what you eat. I did about 4-5 days a week of 1 hour workout and that’s was very manageable. Join clubs, join intramural sports they are SUPER fun and even if you have never done sports you’ll love it.

Pro tip for resume building is to join a lab in undergrad, all professors will have a lab so if you vibe with a professor and their research, join it. It’s easy experience and even entry level these days look for some experience. Take the first semester to get used to college before doing any of this, you’ll have a lot of time, but don’t overwhelm yourself. And if you don’t want to do any of this that’s okay too, but at the very least join clubs and try to make friends, friends make college the best time. Enjoy the process and don’t be afraid to ask for help!
