A Guide to College Move In Part One

May 31, 2016 · by Alyssa

Hey guys! As the summer goes on, you're going to begin thinking about move in day. In this three part series, I am going to go over how to get ready for move in, what you need to pack, what you need to leave at home, and how to be a star on move in day! When I was preparing for college, I searched pinterest for lists of what I should pack for college. What I didn't realize was a lot of those lists are trying to sell you something (gasp) and they often recommend things you don't really need (and honestly don't have room for).

May 29, 2016 · by Alyssa

Hello! I'm going to continue writing about how to prepare for college, so here is the next post in that series! My first post about what to expect at freshman orientation can be found here. This post will focus on something that happens at orientation - scheduling classes. As a freshman, you likely have little to no experience with scheduling college classes - and as a freshman, you are going to get the worst end of the deal. All other students at the college have already chosen and signed up for their courses - so most courses in your major and minor will not have any open seats. During orientation, you will probably be sent as a large group to wait in a room while overworked

What to Expect from College Orientation

May 28, 2016 · by Alyssa

I remember the summer before my freshman year of college, and how absolutely scared I was of orientation. I'd decided to go to an out of state university that no one in my home town had ever heard of. I didn't know anyone that went to my university - I was completely alone. And I was terrified.
