TIPS FOR FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS ■ Go to class. Professors will notice your absence and you’ll lose valuable information. Do not rely on others to provide the necessary information when you miss class. Every student understands the material differently.

■ Get support in your classes. Visit the Learning Commons website for its tutoring schedule at www.pace.edu/tutoring.

■ Make connections with classmates. Create a study group for your classes.

■ Look around campus to take advantage of study resources, workshops, and activities to help make your transition to college stress-free.

■ Meet with your UNV 101 faculty/first-year academic advisor early in the fall semester in a one-on-one meeting and again mid-semester to prepare for registration for spring classes.

8

MORE TIPS FOR FIRST-YEAR STUDENTS ■ Make time for you. Find the balance of managing time between school work, social time, and involvement on campus.

■ Take the time to explore. Don’t feel pressured to make a hasty decision about a career or a major.

■ Everyone makes mistakes, but it’s important to take responsibility for yourself and your actions.

■ Get a head start! Make contact with the experts in Career Services.

■ Stay healthy and eat right.

■ Learn to cope with homesickness by making Pace University your home and staying on campus as much as possible.

■ Learn to budget! Meal plan money can disappear quickly if you don’t plan for the whole semester.

■ Don’t cut corners. As much effort as you put in is what you will get out.

■ Feeling overwhelmed is okay. Ask for help when you need it, whether that be from a member of our Student Affairs team or staff from the Counseling Center. You can even go to one of our many student staff members, including: z Orientation Leaders (OLs) assist students in making the transition to Pace by providing information and new opportunities for academic and personal growth. z Resident Assistants (RAs) serve as both role models and a resource by assisting students with their personal growth and sense of belonging within the residence hall community. z Peer Leaders advise first-year students on everything from social activities to spring semester registration through the UNV 101 course.
