Admissions

Get your ACT testing done early so you can get a great score. It will help you with scholarships. Even if you don't know what you want to become, go to college and try it out. You don't know until you experience college for the first time.

Go to class! College is such a great experience but you are there first and foremost as a student. If you go to class and show your professors that you are making an effort you should have no trouble being successful at ECU.

- The Honors Program is very big here, and it's a good way to gain prestige and make scholarly friends. Unfortunately, many students join on a whim and drop out of the program halfway through. The HSA requires a lot of effort; make sure you can keep it up before you join.
-Take the tour before you enroll. The tour is led by student guides, and it covers every corner of the campus. Touring is a great way to get the feel of the school and ask questions about things that aren't covered in the official information.
-Turn in your housing application as early as you can. Housing fills up fast here, and the good housing goes fastest. Get your application in early for the best chance at a good room.

the school will help you with anything you need. don't be afraid to ask.
the campus is not that big, study the online map to find your classes.

Take the residual if you can, it helped me a lot because all the pressures of the big ACT nerves aren't there.

East Central has a wide variety of campus organizations and clubs. Whether you are looking for social activities like the greek fraternities/sororities, or for service opportunities like Alpha Phi Omega, ECU is a great place to be!

Get to know the campus workers, especially the ones who have attended the college. Thay have great advice, teacher recommendations and more!

Go here. You will not regret it.
