Return to The Frehman Five- Rules for First Year College Students

<h2>The Frehman Five- Rules for First Year College Students</h2>by DanielZ.KaneThe secret to earning a college degree is not a secret at all...just get to your junior year. If you get that far, you're almost guaranteed a degree. And, a pretty high percentage of college students who complete their sophomore year return for their junior year. The "killer" year is year one. Lots of freshmen leave college before completing two semesters. Others complete the year, but do not subsequently return. If you are scheduled to begin college in the not-too-distant future, here are a few suggestions to keep you from being among them. 1. Don't cut classes. Missing classes is the single worst thing you can do. 2. Put yourself on a schedule and stick to it. Be sure to schedule study times, study breaks, and sleep time. 3. Keep up with or ahead of your assignment due dates. Don't fall behind on your reading and don't write your papers at the last minute. Cramming may have worked for you in high school, but it is unlikely to in college. 4. Remember the "all things in moderation" speech that your parents or teachers gave you? If not, as painful as it may be to hear again, ask them to repeat it. That's because it's true. If you stay up all night, drink too much, and spend more time seeking romance than looking for the answers to your math problems, you could be joining the work force before you planned to, and in a different position than the one to which you aspired. 5. Make college your home...become engaged. Reach out to new people. Join a club or activity. See that you take advantage of all that's available to you on campus. The five rules above aren't very complicated. And, they shouldn't be terribly hard to follow. Yet, if everyone adhered to them, the average six year college graduation rate in the United States would probably jump from its currently disappointing 55% to the 90% plus seen at some of our most selective institutions.<h3>About the Author</h3>Daniel Z.
