Hi Ramon,
Looking back on college there are a few things I'm so glad I did and a few things I wish I had done/done more of. So, I have a few suggestions!
-Early on in your freshman year, focus on learning how best to manage your time, both personally and academically. Your social life is a big part of your college experience, and your academic performance an even bigger one. How you go about balancing these two things will have a huge impact on your time in college!
-Save up! Getting a job and/or paid internship and put the money you earn into a savings account
-Remember: College is only the beginning of your adult life. One thing I wish I knew: you're given 4 years to, essentially, figure out what it is you want to do with your life without having all of the responsibilities that come with being an adult - Take advantage!!
