Advice that I would give to a High School Freshmen about college: Do research about what you would like to do in the future and find a college that fits you the most and that is going to help your personal and academic growth. Maintain a good GPA, but also become involved in extra-curricular activities that you are passionate about. Find your passion and develop it.
