Best piece of advice for Freshman:
“Don’t take classes with first-year foreign professors, and choose your classes wisely. Also, don’t just blow off your first year because it’s going to be the easiest way to put yourself ahead when it comes to GPA. All that being said, also make sure you have time for yourself, friends, fun, ect., because you have to have a good work-life balance.”
