This past weekend I went on a college visit with my parents to California. It was amazing and made me soooo excited to start my college journey! But, it also made me super nervous. I have so many questions about what college is going to be like and so many fears, so I go to my college friends for advice. They said the first day of college can be a doosie, so they gave me some advice on how to conquer it! Here is what they told me:

1. Leave your dorm room door cracked: An “open door” policy is always a good one to have. It gives people the opportunity to come in and introduce themselves. An open door = a friendly person living in the room. People are more likely to come in and ask you to go do stuff!
2. Don’t spend your first night alone: Have a girls night with your roommates and some gal pals in your dorm room. Being around people will ward off homesick-ness and will help you make friends.
3. Get acquainted with the campus beforehand: Not knowing where your classes are on the first day is a recipe for disaster, mostly because most college campuses are big and your morning classes could be on the total opposite side of the map than your afternoon classes. Know where you’re going, it seriously helps relieve first-day stress.
4. Wear something you are comfy in: Be comfy and confident on your first day! Dress like yourself. Show people who you are.
5. Don’t get discouraged: If you don’t make friends right away, don’t worry! If you don’t feel “at home”, you will eventually! If your first day is pretty bad, don’t let it get you down. It only gets better from here!
