- ☆ What They DON'T TELL YOU at College Orientation ☆
☆ Hey yall! With Summer officially starting, that means college orientations are officially starting!!! I know all of you must be excited to start your college career, and it all starts with orientation!! You're going to learn so much, but there are also tons of stuff you WON'T learn at orientation, and that's where I come in! Here are some things that they don't tell you at college orientation, but these are things you should probably still know! I hope you enjoy!

Just remember kids, C's get degrees but not scholarships✌🏽
That is TRUE!!! Hahah
But Cs in college keep scholarships 😂
@@danielberretta1833 yes they do!!! hahah
@@MyDriftingDesk not all of them! some academic and even sports scholarships have grade/gpa requirements :)
Or get you into grad school
I'm currently a rising junior at the university of south carolina. I just wanted to put it out there (especially to incoming freshmen) to ALWAYS ask "what's my name" before getting into an uber. A girl at my school (Samantha Josephson) was murdered after getting into a vehicle she thought was her uber and I would hate to see this happen to anyone else :( I know my school will be making people aware of this at orientation but I hope other universities will do the same.
THANK YOU FOR THIS!!!! Yes yes yes. This is important. I’m so sorry for your loss but thank you for sharing this story and spreading awareness about this!
im a rising freshman at uofsc! they addressed this during skits at orientation.
Kiana yay! That makes me so happy that they’re making new students aware.
I once went into a uber with my mom who was on the phone at the time... I am a very attentive teenager so i always look at their phone GPS. I notice that we were going the wrong way and the voice controls were off. I had pretended like i was taking a video for Instagram but i was actually texting my dad to track my location. He did and had began to try and follow the car. We ended up stopping at a draw bridge and my dad knocked on the window and got us out of that possibly dangerous situation.
Thanks 🙏
dont have that "c's get degrees" mindset if y'all planning on getting into to medical school 🤦🏾♀️
Medical school is a whole other beat lol
Or going into teaching. I had some classmates that had that mindset and failed literally and figuratively.
‼️
Or if you plan on getting a good Job or law school... That too.
Or any graduate program
Haha so much for orientation. Where my class of covid-19 at?
I knowwww :( I'm so sorry!
i’m here 😭 trying my best to get ready for school in lima
@@cytamendez4082 Lima Ohio? What school
@@hannahweatherly4353 university of northwestern ohio
I’m so sad my orientation has to be online because of the virus. I’ve been so looking forward to it, but thankfully welcome week will be like a mini orientation as well.
I knowww :/ it's so sad. I'm so sorry.
I felt this, and same, this sucks. No graduation, no orientation, will things ever get better?
For communal bathrooms, I recommend wearing sandals or something similar.
Shower shoes ALL THE WAY!
@@MyDriftingDesk I have some old crocs that still fit me but I don't really like them anymore so I'm set 👌
Here is a tip dont buy your textbooks from the college bookstore but instead if the option is available rent the textbooks it will be cheaper
YESSSS!!
Take a step further, don't buy or rent a textbook altogether unless you know for sure you need it
Yes! Renting textbooks from my school is cheaper than renting from Chegg and Amazon
@@Kaylee_20 Oh wow!! That's great!!
I'm taking 2 online College summer courses and I rented both of my books for about $20 each off of Chegg. There's another one called thriftbooks that's supposed to be good I haven't used them though.
I’m going to Gallaudet university which is a deaf college :) btw yes I’m deaf
OMG! That’s so exciting!!!! 🤩🤩
Congrats! My older sister went there, it’s very hard to get in. Be a proud Bison!!
Jasmin Smith really! Thats amazing happy for her :)
That’s awesome! I took 2 years of ASL in high school (I am hearing), and I’m continuing to take it in college in the fall. I love when deaf customers come in to work (I work at a fast food restaurant) because I can tell how surprised they are when I start signing with them. Good luck at Gallaudet :)
I love ASL!! I wish I would have taken it in College!! I hope you enjoy it!!
Shoutout to the rising freshmen doing online orientation this coming fall 🤪😭 but really your videos are sooooo helpful. I found your channel this morning and have just binged videos all day. I’m not going to OSU (Georgia Tech ‘24 Go Jackets!!!) but I feel like all your advice is super universal😁
aww yay!! I'm so glad my videos have been helpful for you!!! CONGRATS on your admission!!! (I'm from Georgia, so YAY!!!) ❤️❤️
ummm nahhhhhhh UGA >>>>>> fr tho nice job on getting in there
watching college videos like this usually just makes me even more anxious to start college (im worried about getting homesick and that i wont be able to mentally handle the workload and being away from home) but this video was really great!!!! thanks
I'm so glad it was helpful! 💕 it's so normal to be nervous, but you're going to do great!
ok same, but I'm addicted to these AND in middle school so its only gonna get worse lol
How does TH-cam knows I just came back from my orientation?👀
Hahahah. TH-cam knows ALL!!!
lol right
literally... just got home from mine and this was the first recommendation!
Hahaha. TH-cam knows!!
ME
soon as i heard rate my prof i liked it bc it’s literally saving my life
YES!!! Always use that!!
My college provides a page to compare their bookstore prices to amazon but it’s completely inaccurate so make sure you compare prices on your own!
Agreed!!! Always do your own research!!
Watching this video makes me extra grateful that my parents have my back and are willing to help me get through college❤️
I’m happy for you! 💖
Omg I did a college visit to my school maybe 5 months ago and the girl used that "It's big but it's a small campus" bit ahaha and I believed her until now ahah
HAHAH it's true!!!!!
Another good place to buy textbooks is from your classmates. For my one class I bought 5 textbooks from him ( all for the same class) for $40. So he saved me loads. Definalty check with others around you to see if you can get a better deal.
YES! OSU has a Facebook page to help students buy and sell books!!!
I can't wait to live off campus with my boyfriend so I don't have to deal with communal showers and not having personal space. Some people can deal with that, but as someone who has a lot of social anxiety I just can't. so I am incredibly excited to have my own apartment(:
It’s super gross hahahah. I love living off campus because of that!!
The “15 minutes across campus” thing is so, so true! I’m going to the University of Oregon for Music Education and I’m part of the Performing Artists Collective, so I get to live in a dorm building with all of the other music students. Fun, right? Wrong! The music dorm is diagonally across campus from the music school. All the way across campus. The only things farther away from the music school are Autzen Stadium and Matthew Knight Arena. Online, it’ll say something like “it’s only 15 minutes across campus!” Wrong again! I walked from Hamilton (the music dorm) to the music school one day and it took me 30 minutes (and I’m a fast walker). Albeit, this was before I was admitted and before I knew all of the paths around campus. I’m sure there’s a better way to get there. Now, I have nothing against UO, I love it. But let’s be reasonable. The campus is not that small.
They always try to get you with that!!!
is the music ed major hard? what classes are you taking? is your schedule packed? whats the homework like? im going to st olaf college in the fall for music ed and i was wondering what its like!!
@@meredithwallace4043 Honestly, it's a blast. Especially the ensembles. Typically, you take music theory, aural skills (ear training), piano, a studio class for your instrument, and an ensemble. That's in your first year, at least. I actually really liked music theory and piano, but aural skills was, in my opinion, torture. You may like it, though! You're schedule will be PACKED. Most classes have credits relative to the amount of work required. Like, 12 credits required 40 hours of work a week. Music classes are not like that. A 12 credit schedule will require more like 60 hours of work a week, or more. Plus your practice time. Pianists are required to practice 8 hours a day here. If you can, though, I highly suggest doing marching band. It'll help keep you sane while you juggle ten 1 credit classes. It'll really be worth it. Overall, it's not terrible as long as you have friends and you find things you enjoy. It's a lot of work, but very worth it. Good luck!
Ayeee fellow music Ed major!
I’m actually a Junior at Bellarmime Univeristy. Watching this because I’m on the orientation team and want to see if we can improve our program. Btw love your personality you got a new subscriber from me!
Awww I love that!!! That’s such a great idea to improve your program. I wish OSU would watch my videos and make some changes hahahah. But thanks girl 💖💖
Ahh that’s crazy! I’m going to University of Louisville in August!
Paige Preston college is a great time I’m sure you’ll have a blast!
they gave us "free" shirts and i didnt notice til i left that mine had a huge whole in it
At OSU?! I would be mad hahaha.
I am going to Fashion Institute of Tech in the fall.. class of 2023
CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🤩🤩
Ingabire adam dang thats cool
Ingabire adam Same!
im going to be a freshman at the university of texas at arlington and i got back from my orientation a few days ago!! this video was so informative and useful. thank you!!!!
Aww yay!!! I’m glad it was helpful!!! Good luck with your freshman year!!!
girl me too!!
Heyy I’m an incoming freshman there too !!!
omg i’m going for my orientation on saturday at misericordia university so glad i found your channel! love all your tips for freshmen videos
Aww yay!!!! I hope you have a GREAT time!!!! I’m so glad I could help 💖
really sad i dont get an orientation :(
ughhhh :/ that's so awful. All of this is so awful. I'm so sorry!
Same mine is online and I’m a transfer student so I’m loosing my mind 😐
Me too my dude😕
thank you for this (': im moving to the us by myself for college and im so nervous esp bc i missed the regular orientation aaa
Ahhhh that’s gunna be a great experience!!!!
A ton of people choose to skip orientation or simply can't make it, I promise you aren't the only one :) If you have questions that you think you might've missed out on getting answers to, you should definitely email your adviser or see if your school has a social app for students. nobody ever told me about our app and it's definitely helped with making mutuals (even though its only on the app LOL)
good advice!!!
you’ll be fine! I also moved to the US for school (I start college this school year)
My orientation is literally in a few hours 😂😭 I’m just up watching youtube vids to prepare, but my ass is gonna be tired. Thank you for helping out this freshman at 1:54 a.m. 😭
Aww hahaha! I hope you got some sleep and had a great orientation! 🤩
Art supplies if youre an art student lol.... so expensive
Ugh I’m so sorry!!!
I’m going to be a senior at Randolph College in VA. The points you made were so accurate. Especially about doing what you wanna do and making the most out of your time. I also liked that you mentioned safety and how colleges downplay their statistics. I try to tell my friends that aren’t from around my college all the time that the area right off campus isn’t as safe as the college would lead you to believe especially for women.
NOPE!! they never want to tell you that, of course. But it needs to be said!!
Ooo girl our states be rivals 😂😂 but I really love these videos!!! I’m a freshman at a smaller college in OK, and I’m so nervous!
Don’t be nervous!!!! It’s going to be amazing!!! 🤩🤩🤩
I’m going to Purdue University in the fall and I’ll be a physics major so I’m really nervous so thank you for the advice!
Aw yay! Congratulations!!! You're going to have so much fun!!!
I’m going to my orientation at SUNY Cortland tomorrow! Thank you for this video 💓
Was it GREAT?! I’m glad my video was helpful!!!!
I am currently a high school senior and will start college in fall 2021, and sis, I CAN'T THANK YOU ENOUGH for all the information you shared in this video!! It was so helpful and really made me realize what I was going to be putting my self into. You just got yourself a new subscriber, love your content :))
❤️ omg THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm so glad it was helpful for you!!!
I’m a little late but Wayne state university in Michigan ❤️ I’m technically a 4th year student but considered a sophomore because I’ve transferred 2 times now, changed my major and had a child, lol I’ll finish school one day
YOU GOT THIS!!! Don't compare your page 25 to someone else's 5678. You are getting it done and there's no time limit on getting your degree! 💞
I'm transferring to another college in the fall and this is a video that I WISH I saw before I started my freshman year of college!!
At least you got a mini orientation for your new school now hahaha.
@@MyDriftingDesk hahaha!! Yeah, honestly! Thank you so much!
You’re so welcome! 💖
My biggest tip for anyone still in high school is don’t knock community college! If your GPA isn’t good enough to get you to a quality school, you still want to live at home, or you’re unsure what direction you want to take, it’s a great path. It’s less of a financial burden if you decide to change your major, and for me it was a great transition from high school. I had a really average/poor GPA in high school and now I have my Associates degree with Honors and got accepted to my dream university for my major. All my roommates on campus are transfer students like me, and I got to have more options for housing since I’m not required to have a freshman dorm. I definitely don’t think community college gets enough publicity for being an option after high school, but it can provide you with so much while still letting you transfer and get the college experience if that’s what you want.
Definitely agree!!! If I would have known more and been educated on this route I would have taken it!!!
University of Washington. Apparently it's really competitive which doesn't sound fun but fingers crossed it'll be worth it!
Fingers crossed for you!!!! 🤞🏼🤞🏼
Me too! Praying for the both of us 😀😐
I’m going to Jacksonville University, and I’m majoring in Psych too! This was really helpful!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! We love a Psychology major! haha. I'm so glad it was helpful!!
I’m a future PHIN TOO!! How has your experience been so far?
I'll be a freshman at OSU this coming fall and your videos have really helped me prepare for it! Thanks for the great content, keep it up! :)
Aw yay!!! I hope you love being at OSU!!!
About shaving: invest in Nair. Just slather that on and it'll last longer. Armpits are easier to shave in the shower in college so you don't have to worry about that lol.
I have yet to try nair!!! But it definitely would help a lot!!
I’m going to university of Redlands ! I’m excited but I’m so nervous for orientation it’s five days long, and like 13+ hours everyday and I don’t know people and I’m shy ! Ahhh I hope
It goes okay
WHAT?! 5 days wow!! I thought osu was bad with 2 days!!!! I hope you enjoy your first year!!!!!
I'm an upcoming freshman at the University of Southern Mississippi, and my freshman year will have the highest number of incoming students in the university's history. I'm very nervous about making friends even though there are thousands of students. I'm even more nervous about grades because I will lose all financial help if I have below a 3.0.
I love going to osu because its such a big school!!! You’ll have no problem making friends!!! I hope you have fun!!!
Just prioritize and time manage well, always get school work done first before hanging out with friends!! I’m sure you can do it!! 💖
This is a really great video with awesome advice! My freshman year of undergrad was really difficult for me and I felt very isolated and lonely...so I really appreciate you mentioning that aspect of becoming a college student! But you will get through it! I did, I'm in graduate school now, and I couldn't be more excited! Never give up on your dreams and passions!
I agree!!! NEVER GIVE UP! 💓💓💓
I’m a rising senior so I still have another year but I’m hoping for UofSC fall 2020
YESSS!!! Good luck to you!
Leanne H I’m going to UofSC this year! I’m psyched!
I’m going to Southern Oregon University this fall (hopefully they let us on campus despite corona 🤞) and I’ve been watching a lot of college preparation videos and yours are probably the best! I’m actually learning a lot of stuff I wasn’t aware of before, kinda getting nervous but I’m also really excited now too.
omg I'm so happy they're helpful for you!! Don't be nervous! You're going to love it!!!!!
Thank you!!!!
Iam a mom and I appreciate your talk about safety at parties especially. I love your mental health care too... Iam a nurse and your spi
Your video is perfect... thank you
It needs to be talked about!! Both being safe at parties and your mental health! I wish universities did more in this area! But thank you so much! 💖
i’m going to washington state and i’m super excited. our orientation was pretty good but this was super helpful. nervous but mostly just an excited nervous

thanks for the reminders! i’m going to covenant college in less than two weeks! im very excited!

The classes for my major only had very early classes along with late ones. One class required for everyone is a workshop type class that starts at 7:30 am and I want to cry

Damn. I would cry too😭😭

You will do great, I’m sure of it!!! I hope you enjoy it!!!! I’m so glad this was helpful!!!
Lily Isabella ૐ r u going to the one in Fort Collins or Pueblo??
i’m going to foco too!!
Marilyn Levi fort collins!! what about you??
Faith Noelle omg!! what’s your insta?
Totally not someone who has followed you for over two years on social media finally going to college this fall at Morehead state university. My tour guide was surprised with what I knew about campus and the type of questions I asked. Thank you for all of your tips
ommggg I LOVE THIS!!! ❤️
I have orientation in two weeks and this helped SO much! Thank youuuu
yayy!! I'm glad it was helpful!! Have fun at orientation!!
I’m a transfer student, but this seriously helped me relax a little! My orientation is soon and I really have no clue what to expect lol
Oh you’ll be fine!!! Where are you transferring to?!
Marissa Nicole I transferred to unc charlotte!
I hope you love it there!!!
I found out that incoming orientation was costing me over a $100 so I complained. Found out in the student handbook (with tiny print) that you could do online orientation for $75. So that means I was being charged an extra $25 for college food and t-shirts. Save money people and look into these things!
definitely look into ways you can save money YES YES YES!
thank you for this video! :) im starting college this fall and im honestly very anxious about everything.
you're so welcome!! don't be nervous, you're gunna have so much fun! 💜
I’m going to Wake Forest in North Carolina! Loved the video ❤️
Congratulations!!! 🤩🤩🤩
I graduated in December and all of these are SO ACCURATE. thank you. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
CONGRATULATIONS!!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Ok, yes an 8am class does suck... but try taking a 7am class, that sucks even more, especially if you live off campus 25 minutes away... I agree no matter what don’t take an 8 or 7am class, you may think you are a morning person, but that is a whole new level. DONT DO IT! (I am college junior as of this year).
I freakin love your videos!!!! Keep up the wonderful work!!!
YIKES 7am lol. no one is a COLLEGE morning person lol.
thank you so much! 💖
I'm going to UTChatt in the fall and I'm sooo pumped! I've been binging your videos for a few days because you have some really great advice and tips!
aw thank you so much!!! I'm glad that it's helpful!
Your intro music and your intro in general is my favorite
aww thank you so much!! 💖
Ima get Grandma’s home cook meals ❤️❤️
You’re lucky!!
I'll be at Ball State University this fall and loved the video!
Same!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! 🤩🤩🤩 have so much fun!!!
Hey! I would love to see a video for incoming HS seniors where you talk about the college app process, essays, etc.
For your Q&A:
What are some fun things to do in Columbus for college kids?
Have you ever felt unsafe on OSU’s campus?
How do you deal with walking around such a big campus during the winter?
Oh, could you also talk about your Ohio State job?
Good thing is I have this video planned 😉 hahaha. So yay!!!
But for my Q&A I can most definitely talk about all of that!! 🤩
ok i love your vibe and college advice especially as an incoming freshman this fall!
omg thank you so much! ❤️
OhioState. I'm currently in the middle of orientation (one day left) they do make you feel at home, especially the peer leaders. They kinda touched on what it takes to have good grades but it was all typical stuff you hear everywhere
Yay!!! I’m glad you’re enjoying orientation!!! Welcome to OSU!!!!
I’m going to Syracuse University this fall
YESSS. CONGRATULATIONS!! 🤩🤩
I’m going to an all engineering college 7 to 1 male to female ratio so I need girly advice
first of all YOURE THE BOMB!!! Show those boys what you’re made of 💖
Definitely paid for everything they gonna be giving 😂 $600 admission fee
YUP!!!! Nothing is free hahaha
I ended up paying $1200 for mine😓
WHAT?! That’s crazy!!!
Damn what colleges did y'all go to?
I'm going to be a freshmen at Texas Tech University and just want to say your videos are life saver! IT's everything that I wanted/need to hear before moving into college!
Omg yay!!! I’m so happy to hear that!!!! I hope you love your first year!!! 🤩🤩
Omg how is it?! Thats my number one collage becuase my parents went their.
@@sydneyford6248 I personally love it! It's a really pretty campus and their pre-med department is amazing! There's so many clubs and organizations and the town is a little smaller coming from someone in a big city but I still highly recommend it!
@@ashleymwangi3269 really thats great! I was actually thinking of going into the pre- med department. Thank you so much for responding.
i don’t go to college for another 4 years but i still watch all of these “things i wish i knew before going to college” just bc i don’t want to be that freshman at college
you are definitely going to be prepared then hahahah
Amen about the bookstore prices! OMG I preach that to anyone headed to college. Don't EVER buy the books at the bookstore.
NEVER EVER!!!
I want to see the full back of your laptop... what I can see of it, it looks pretty
hahah thank you so much!!
So excited!! Where my UIUCs at?
CONGRATS!!!!
I headed to Claremont McKenna in Cali.

Yayyy!! Congratulations!!! 🤩🤩🤩
Go Bulls!!! You’re gonna love it.
Hey!! I am currently attending a college in Los Angeles, California and I’m super interested in applying to transfer to Ohio State for my 2nd year and it’s been my dream school. The deadlines at my college weren’t aligned with OSU so I’m applying to Spring 2020.
My question is do you have any advice for moving into OSU or Ohio in general? This especially since I literally live across the country and I’m so used to being in Los Angeles with all the typical weather and city stuff.
I have a million other questions about OSU but that’s my biggest concern. THANKS!!!
Yess!!! I can definitely talk about this!!! I’m so excited for you to come to OSU though! Yay!!!
If you have any other questions definitely let me know!
Love this- so much good advice. Thanks for sharing and posting
aw yay! I'm glad you liked it!
Woah I just looked at the OSU map to see what you were talking about and its huge!!! The schools I'm looking at are smaller than that and they also both told me that it takes 15 min from one side to the other. (It's not 15 min but still).
15 minutes is a LIE!!! Hahahaha. OSU is huge!!!!
I’m starting out at USC a month from today...hYPED
AHHH! I hope you have a great first year!!!
I am an incoming freshman at Black Hills State University in Spearfish, SD. I'm so excited about college. I have been binge-ing college videos to prepare myself.
ahhh CONGRATS!!!! 💜
@@MyDriftingDesk Thank you!
here as a junior in high school, oddly enough i’m excited for college because of the independence but also really scared 😭 hopefully my college experience won’t be ruined like the covid situation
don't be scared!! It's normal to be nervous, but you're gunna have so much fun!
I just got back from orientation at Ohio State!! I’m mostly nervous about my Spanish class as far as my schedule, lol 😬 any tips??
Don’t be nervous!!! What Spanish is it? What makes you nervous about it?
Marissa Nicole Spanish 2!! I haven’t taken Spanish since freshman year of high school so I’m just worried it’s gonna be over my head!!
Well you took a placement test that placed you in Spanish two so you must know a little bit more than you think!! Don't doubt yourself!!! Honestly, be ready for ONLY spanish to be spoken. Spanish here has professors that ONLY speak spanish in class so it gets hectic at times and can be overwhelming I will be honest. but you can say "como se dice _____" for them to tell you how to say something. and typically you can ask questions in english but they'll answer in spanish. But if it becomes too overwhelming you can always talk to your academic advisor about maybe switching to Spanish 1155 (which is in-between spanish 1 and 2) that way you can ease yourself in a little better. I hope that helps!!
Marissa Nicole that helps so much!! Thanks! Go Bucks! 🙂
@@emmamarie246 GO BUCKS!
Even though I absolutely despise OSU (as an incoming freshman to OU) But I really did enjoy this video! It was really helpful and gets me even more excited for school to start and probably cry myself to sleep with my class load 😂
Thank you for making this!
OU OH YEAH!!! I hope you have a great first year!!! I’m so glad it was helpful!!
i'm going to tulane in the fall so thank you for this! :)
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You’re so welcome!!
I'm headed to Miami University in the fall, very excited!
CONGRATULATIONS 🤩🤩
Headed off to Manchester University in August! I'm a little nervous, but really excited!
Omg!!! You’re going to have so much fun!!!
I'm going to Coastal Carolina University in the fall. I am most excited for dorm life!
OMG!!! CONGRATS!!!
For shaving, i have an electric razor so ive never shaved my legs in the shower before and i dont go through disposable razors very fast cuz im only shaving my ampits. I also dont get knicks or cuts because its electric and not sharp blades
that's smart!!
Emma Jaworski dumb question but does it still give a close shave?
@@melissa-om4gk I'd say its definitely close enough where i dont have any issue with it (granted i have blonde-ish leg hair so i dont notice it much until it gets fairly long, and im also someone who really doesnt give a damn if i have some leg hair and I wear leggings most of the time anyways lol) but i think the one time i used a regular razor it did give a slightly closer shave, but it was such a hassel trying to contort myself in the shower and get the shaving cream to not rinse off and everything that I'd much rather use my electric one. It probably depends on the electric razor too, different brands/prices might give a closer shave.
First! I’m incoming freshman and I just got here at Columbus visiting OSU! It’s huge and so pretty here!
OMG!!! I hope you love it!!!!
tip: Even if you forget to study, DO NOT pull an allnighter the night before exam. It won't help you and it would be better to study late- and sleep some. However, feel free to pull on one on another night.
I AGREE!! NO all nighters before an exam, they're SO bad and it won't help!
Ill be attending OSU my orientation in in June.
YAY!!! Have fun!!! 🤩
I’m 3 years late to this vid. I’m glad I found your channel. Thank you for all this advice. I am class of 2026 so as a upcoming freshman and move in in 2 weeks.
♥️♥️ so glad it's been helpful!!!
The Changing major thing is something your only going to do if you’re not passionate about anything. I’m a sound engineering major so I work with a lot of the film majors, music industry majors, music majors, and I can say that all the people passionate about their craft DO NOT change majors. As for people going for nursing, or early edu, psychology on the other hand, those seem to be the majors where most people who just sorta threw themselves into college with no passion end up.
being dead set on something and having a passion for it, doesn't mean you won't find new passions or new interests while in college and switch things around. All in all, I was just saying that changing your major is NORMAL and not to feel bad about doing so because SO many people do it and everything will work out in the end :)
Marissa Nicole oh yeah totally, I’m not saying that there’s anything wrong with it, I just find that any type of art majors especially seem to be a bit more head strong in what they want to do, atleast compared to things like medical and English majors.
Hi Marissa, my name is Hemali and I’m an incoming freshman at Ohio State. First off I just wanted to say you and your videos have helped me so much so thank you for taking the time to make these!! For your next video could you talk about Day 1 vs. Day 2 of the Orientation please? Is it necessary for parents to be there? How long does it last? What should I bring? And lastly is there a specific schedule that everyone does things or is it like everyone for themselves?
Aww thank you so much!! I’m so glad they’ve been helpful!!!
I can most definitely talk about all of this in my OSU Q&A I’m filming soon!! There definitely is some differences!!
