8 Signs You Are About To Be A Senior In College

Just yesterday we were all moving into our freshman dorms and trying to work up the courage to introduce ourselves to the people living next to us. We were saying bye to our parents and figuring out how we would survive on our own. We were the small freshman walking around the campus trying to find our classes and not make a total fool of ourselves during that first day. Where did the time go? How are we already going to be seniors? How is this our last year? Is there a remind button we can hit to go back to the beginning of the past three years?

Here’s 8 signs you are about to be a senior in college:

1. It’s scary to think about the last chapter of college.

It hard to say, but it’s the beginning of the end. After senior year, we will be getting jobs, having to do adult things, and for some, starting families. I don’t know how this will work when sometimes I accidentally sleep through my 8 a.m….Sorry to my future employer.


2. But you’re really excited for senior year parties.

This is the year where everyone will officially be 21 and everyone can go to bars and clubs all together. No more underage drinking for all you seniors!


3. You are rushing to find a summer internship.

It’s getting down to the wire, hurry up and get that internship before it’s too late.

Do you want to stay an extra year?


4. Everyone keeps asking what you want to do after college.

Why does everyone keep asking what I want to do after I graduate? I don’t even know what I want to eat for lunch today. The struggle is real all the time.


5. You are starting to feel old.

We all love to go through pictures...looking at those freshman year pictures you realize you aren’t that little 18-year-old anymore. So much has happened in these past three years and we are starting to feel like old people now.


6. You’ve already caught Senioritis.

I’m not saying I want to get a zero on my business final, but after calculations I can still get a B in the class even without taking the final. So I should just skip it, right?


7. You have that core friend group.

Senior year is here and you have that set friend group you can go to for anything and everything. Thank God it’s not like freshman year anymore, where you had to try to find and make friends.


8. Regardless how scared you are, you know this year will be in the record books.

No matter how scared we all are and say we aren’t ready…. The Class of 2017 is ready to take on Senior year and show who’s in control. This class is going to go down in history.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

For a moment your world is spinning. The phone alarm has just scared you awake and you’re flooded by daunting thoughts of the day ahead. You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Finals week is upon us. It is a magical time of year during which college students everywhere flock to the library in attempt to learn a semester's worth of knowledge in only a week. For some students, it's their first time in the library all semester, maybe ever. Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs. While these newbies wander aimlessly around the first floor, hopelessly trying to find a table, the OGs of the library are already on the third floor long tables deep into their studies. Here is a few signs that you may live in the library, whether you'd like to admit it or not.
