I’m a college sophomore so I’ll give u advice as a recent freshman. You will get lost on your first day, don’t stress it. College is nothing like high school. SOME(not all) professors aren’t as strict with deadlines, like high school has made it out to seem like. Try not to procrastinate, I’m still working on that lol. Choose your classes carefully and on time. Group chats( some people will want to do it but not all) for certain classes does indeed help, certainly helped me and my classmates stay on track by helping each other out. Don’t choose morning classes if you are not an early bird. And lastly, college goes by fast. It will get stressful but as long as you keep yourself motivated and determined, you will do well. Good luck, if you are going to college!
