What Students Are Saying
One of the most important things that I would suggest to incoming students is quite simply - take it seriously. Be on the ball with deadlines, be proactive with coming to class every day, seeing your counselor each new quarter for academic advising, use the resources at your fingertips. The faculty here want to help you, and we have some of the most impressive professors here who are dedicated and open about their work. If you open yourself up to the possibilities, you will surely succeed.

Do your homework and use the resources that the school offers if you need help. Also remember this is your money so don't be scared to ask questions.
Nicholle from Puyallup, WA
parking is very crowded so it is better to arrive early or take the bus if it is more convenience. and be sure to register for classes early because it will run out very quickly. they have a lot of free money for scholarships so you can even go for free.
