Applicant's Advice
"Enjoy your childhood and don't give 110%—give 100% and prioritize health. Go to college for yourself, not others; use Net Price Calculator to eliminate unaffordable schools. Don't overlook state schools—they offer world-class education. Create opportunities if none exist; be grateful for what you have. Fail early to learn what not to do. Graduating early should be a last resort made with careful consideration of mental and physical health."
