In one word, how do you feel about college right now?

Words of Wisdom  Start fresh in a brand new environment.  Your experience at Questrom is about you, and you alone. Do things that interest you.  Be open minded. Try something that makes you uncomfortable.  Don’t be afraid to meet new people.  It isn’t too early to start thinking about your future, but do be careful of overwhelming yourself.  Start joining the business clubs.  Check out Handshake.  Attend all those Questrom networking events.

Words of Wisdom  It’s okay to ask for help.  Go to see your professors and TAs in office hours.  Always start studying early (two weeks in advance is usually a good start), don’t wait until last minute.  Continuously review concepts and content for your classes.  Read your email.  College is all about time management.  Be You.  Get your feet wet and get out of your comfort zone.
