Introduction
Congratulations! You did it. You have made one of your first major decisions in your life, the decision to go to
college. You have put yourself on one of the greatest launching pads to success. And if you succeed and make it
through you will join the elite status of “graduate” and all the perks it brings. Did you know that the average
college graduate will make approximately one million dollars more in their lifetime than those who don’t graduate
from college? A million dollars more! Not to mention all the doors that will open up for you because of your
education. Soon you will experience first-hand all of the benefits tied to going to college. You are going to
have a chance to meet people from all around the world, and make friendships that will last a lifetime. You will
have the opportunity to see and hear things that may give you a new perspective and direction in life. Get ready:
this quite possibly could be the best years of your life.
Make no mistake about it, college is an awesome experience. But it is also hard work. To be successful, you’re
going to have to study more in college then you did in high school. Most college professors will tell you that
you will need to study three hours outside of class for every one hour you’re in class. That’s a lot of studying.
Another big aspect of college is the many important choices you make. Choices like: What will be your major? What
classes should you take? How will you balance all of your studying with a million other things going on in
college? How will you survive on a college budget?
This college handbook is designed to help you make those decisions and others while in college or preparing for
college. Inside you will find helpful tips, warnings, tools and resources to help make your college journey a
success.
Your college years could quite possibly be your most memorable ones. This handbook was made to make sure they are
your most productive as well. Once again, congratulations.
