Press Release: Navigating Your Freshman Year
 
NAVIGATING YOUR FRESHMAN YEAR

Peer wisdom on how to survive the first year of college


Each year, more than 3 million students enter colleges and universities across the U.S. While everyone’s freshman year experience is different, one characteristic is common—it’s extremely challenging. As students adapt to their new academic and social environments, they’re faced with issues they haven’t encountered before and can significantly benefit from advice based on similar first-hand experiences.

Written and reviewed by current college students and recent graduates, NAVIGATING YOUR FRESHMAN YEAR by Allison Lombardo intersperses advice with first-hand student accounts, quotes, and interviews to help freshmen successfully navigate through their first year at college. Realistic and brutally honest tips are provided, including what essentials to pack; how to live in peace with roommates; how to choose the right classes; how to deal with the challenge of college academics; how to take advantage of campus resources and make friends by getting involved; and how to enjoy the social scene and stay physically and emotionally fit. Also included is a section on how to think about transferring to another school and advice from faculty and advisors.

NAVIGATING YOUR FRESHMAN YEAR is part of the Students Helping Students™ series of guides for high school and college students. Each Students Helping Students™ guide is written and edited exclusively by current college students and recent graduates, and contains only the most relevant and helpful advice.

Allison Lombardo is a student at Brown University. She lives in Cranford, New Jersey.
