KP:  Do as many internships as you can. It wasn’t really a big deal when I went here but now I organize many internships and it’s a good opportunity to gain experience in your field.

Also, travel and study abroad.  If you love to travel, make it a priority. I regret not studying abroad while I was in college, and I love to travel so I made sure to have time after college so I can travel, and it was amazing.
