What do you wish you would have known your first semester?

I wish I would have known how to balance my social and academic life. Being fully independent and away from home can cause some people, including my past self, to go a little crazy. There is no one to tell you to go to class or to do your homework so you need to have some self discipline. It is 100% possible to be social and get all your work done, you just need to find that balance.

Why did you choose Towson University?

Towson was actually the only school I applied to. I knew from the second that I stepped on campus that I was going to be attending school here. The students are so welcoming and the staff is always looking out for you.

What advice would you give a prospective student?

To accept change rather than fight it. Going away to school can be scary and can lead to a lot of anxieties, but being open to all new experiences can help the transition go smoother.

Something on my Towson University bucket list is....

To have a spring semester at Towson.
