Get Involved in Student Organizations
While academics are important, there’s a lot more to college than going to class. Want more to your college experience? Get involved in academic-based student organizations, which give you the opportunity to make friends, develop organizational and leadership skills, make professional connections and make a difference in the campus and community.
