1. It’s okay to not know your major

Really, It's okay! Most people don't know exactly what they want to do when they get to college.

2. It's okay to switch your major

It's okay to switch your major twice, or three times. You're not in a contract to keep one major and stick with it. If you lose your passion for something, that's okay. It's always better to be happy with a job, and excited about school than to be miserable. "But I'm too far into it!" Look into it as a minor!

3.Call your mom

Call your mom when you've had a good day, when you've had a bad day, when you have a terrible test grade or when you can't figure out the damn washer in the dorms.

4.Push yourself out of your comfort zone

Say hello to people in your classes, sit next to a stranger, find someone sitting alone at lunch and sit with them.

5. Call your friends at home.

Don't forget about them, honestly. Though there may be space between you two, or your whole group, there's breaks that you'll come home and see them.

6. Don’t take 8am classes.

You won't go. It just won't happen. 8am is the worst feeling on a monday after a weekend of fun. Or a tuesday morning after trying to catch up on monday with homework, and finals.. 8am is your worst nightmare.

7.Find school pride

Go to baseketball games, get every free tshirt you can. You will cherish them once you graduate. They're normally great work out shirts anyway!

8. Don’t be afraid to ask questions

Ask upper classmen questions. Ask people in your major (or perspective major) what it's like. Ask questions and learn! That's what you're here for.

9.Be involved in your dorm

These are the people you'll be friends with once you move out. Have movie nights, study nights, pizza nights. Hang out, get to know your neighbors! It'll be a great year that way.

10. Free food is good food.

Always get free food. College food gets old, so when there's an option to get free food (Which is usually pizza ) go for it.
