Message from the author:

College is a big step into the world of adulthood. College students will accomplish something that many people don’t even want to try. College is a learning experience. Not to mention, when a student gets thier degree, it will increase thier salary potential, job security, and professional status. Everyone’s college experience is different.

This book is a guide to help students start their college career. I made many mistakes in college, and I am putting my lessons learned out there to help others. Students can choose to learn from them, or ignore them. Many people that start college encounter obstacles and just give up due to the lack of knowledge and support.

My goal in writing this book is to provide students with a roadmap to success in both the academic and personal world. The tips reflect my own personal opinion, based on the experiences I had throughout my 8 years of college. I hope you choose to share my lessons with a student that may benfit from.

Best wishes,
James S. Parker
