Students planning to attend Maryland Eastern Shore should know that you will not get pacified, instead pushed to exceed limits that one may have thought was impossible. Another important thing to learn if planning to attend Eastern Shore or any college is how to be independent. Having an advisor or someone to look over you is good to keep you on track as well.
