  • Hey, friends! In today's video I lead you guys through my move-in process to Brown University! I moved in last Friday, the 25th, and I am super excited for the upcoming schoolyear! Freshman orientation started two days ago: Saturday, September 2. I am starting my channel to document my college life and share advice on the college process. If you are a rising senior, or even an ambitious high school student, my upcoming videos will be super helpful!
    I am a 17-year-old incoming freshman at Brown University double concentrating in Philosophy, and Cognitive Neuroscience. I am an artsy-fartsy crafter, and an ambitious scholar. Follow me as I navigate the college system as a first-generation student in the Ivy League!

    How did you make so many friends so early in the school year? I'm so excited for college in the fall but I'm kind of scared that I won't make friends.

    • @LivingLikeLisa
      @LivingLikeLisa  6 ปีที่แล้ว +18

      Christina Myers I moved in early because I was accepted to a preorientation program! Honestly, it was such a great experience and everyone who is on campus early gets to know each other sooner than when the rest of the class arrives. I had great luck with my dorm assignment as well! I've developed great friendships with my dorm mates! Don't worry about making new friends yet- everyone is coming in fresh and new. Every person you meet will be very eager to get to know you!

    Hi! I absolutely love your videos!! They’re amazing! I’m going to be a freshman at Brown in the fall and I’m very excited!! I just have a quick question. How did you raise your bed that high? Did you buy something to prop it up? Or can you adjust the bed frame thingy?

    • @LivingLikeLisa
      @LivingLikeLisa  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Congrats and welcome to College Hill!! And you can raise your bed to the highest level. Just look up videos online about raising a dorm bed frame! It requires another person to help so I had my step dad help me

      Fae, my college is a 15 hr drive as well. I suggest really making it more of a fun sight seeing road trip. If you can, leave a day earlier and stop by fun places along the way or arrive a day earlier and explore the town a bit to get to know it! Think of it as a last family trip before you’re out on your own 😊

    • @LivingLikeLisa
      @LivingLikeLisa  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      By nature, I’m a very social person! Haha I like to talk and make friends from the get-go, but that’s just my personality. Everyone is a bit different. However, from what I’ve found, People at Brown are super nice and it just takes a simple hello to start conversations. Every first year student is looking to make friends and get to know other people so the beginning of the year is very social and amicable. I arrived on campus a week earlier than regular move-in for freshmen because I was a part of a preorientation program, so that helped me get acquainted with campus earlier.

    what your SAT AND TOEFL ??

    • @LivingLikeLisa
      @LivingLikeLisa  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Joy Natanael I scored in the 98th percentile for SAT, 99th percentile for ACT, and I've always been in school in the United States so I was not required to submit the TOEFL. English was my second language but I scored well above the threshold for English support when I was tested in kindergarten, so I never received ESL instruction. That being said, I have native/bilingual proficiency in English. I was born in the US and have never lived outside of the US, so I am not an international student.

    • @joynatanael554
      @joynatanael554 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    • @LivingLikeLisa
      @LivingLikeLisa  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      Joy Natanael I did not submit any of my SAT subject test scores. I took 3 but decided to not submit any of them because I scored really high on the ACT.
