    Excellent Video Emily! You covered the basics extremely well. I would like to have a class full of students like you. My two cents, I send my students to abesbooks for really dirt cheap books. My students often buy their books for less then $10 when a new one would cost $250. My second “cent.” Also “test drive” your professors. If you don’t like the instructor or the way they conduct their class. BAIL. I wished I did that as an undergrad. Our personalities “fit” better with some people then others, including instructors. Don’t suffer through a class for 15 weeks just because it fits your schedule.

      There are few in person classes being offered at CSU Fresno next semester (fall 2020) on Instagram. Go to the search icon and type in Fresno State Anthropology Club, they posted it on the 9th of July.

    Your first year, how did you manage your housing? Did you choose to live in a dorm? With roommates? By yourself?

    • @emilyserrato9219
      @emilyserrato9219  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Mar Morales hi, I live in Fresno so I stayed at my parents house 🙂 but from seeing others, dorms are really expensive compared to a shared student apartment. If you join the Fresno state Facebook group, you’ll find plenty of people looking for roommates or leases to take over.

    Hi Emily! I’m going to be a freshman at Fresno and wanted to know how did you become familiar w/the campus and your classes especially your first year or day of school… lowkey scared to be lost the first day lol any tips or advice is really appreciated :)

    • @emilyserrato9219
      @emilyserrato9219  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Luckily I had my dog days in person so they gave us a tour on campus! To find my classes I used the pdf of the campus map they have online :) get familiar with the locations of the buildings in orientation to the big streets around so that you can easily travel around the campus. look for the buildings of your classes on the campus map. Good luck and congrats!
