As I type this , I am in my university dorm room. A year ago, when I was awaiting to hear the results of my college applications, I often went to websites for some type of insider look on what college would be like. However, there’s only so much that prep books, websites, and older friends can teach. Here are the top 5things nobody told me about college:
61 Nobody entering a university knows exactly what they want to study. If they tell you otherwise, they’re lying and will probably change what they want to purse within the first quarter of attendance . During my first
quarter at University of California, Riverside (UCR),I thought that I wanted to study Political Science with its focus on International Affairs, so that’s what I applied for.

In order for you to take advantage of the conferences, research, internships ,and fellowships that your university offers, apply!

You are only one person, and you do not have time to waste on people who would rather cause drama or mess up with your purpose. Surround yourself with uplifting individuals who challenge you
to be better while loving you for who you are, and be patient to the people who are the complete opposite of that description.

36.When I started my Ph.D. program, I felt like the dumbest person in every class. I couldn’t believe how many smart people were there.
