Admissions

Get to know your teachers. They are there for you, not for the research money like at every other large university. They truly care about their students. You will get more from your experience if you involve your teachers and advisors.

c'mon down (:

attend as many events as you can that will help you get better at your academics! the school has a ton of resources that help you feel like you fit in and do well in your classwork

For future students:
-Do not wait until the day of or before classes to buy your books or you will be standing in line for hours.
-Arrive to school early to find a parking space. The most chaotic times for parking is 10:45-12:30 because thats around the time the 11:00 classes begin. Those are the most favorable classes and most people have those classes so there's literally no parking around that time.

you should get involved, but not forget your studies along the way. time management is key.

DO NOT live in university meadows!

Go to class everyday and the professors will notice you. They can boost your grade for attendance and participation. Try to live on campus, this will leave you with many resources for homework, job opportunities, and attending school 10 times easier. Keep a positive attitude and don't be afraid to as questions.

Be prepared for class. Take advantage of your teacher's office hours.

One thing that I would recommend for incoming student are prospective students is to be organized and balance with there time management. The University is not a very rich university like other schools in the area so that organization and balance will come in handy when trying to get work-study, scholarships,and etc.
