College changed my life. It opens your eyes, and it's the sweetest life experience. I never lived in dorms, but I've been told that you really bond with roommates, and more often than not you find life long friends in there. Professors: the range is as wide as it can be, you'll have the ones you totally hate, and the ones you just fall in love with. Occasionally you'll get both extremes merged in one prof. Activities, classes, and students are all relative to your major and what school you're going to. I went to a public university and it was awesome. That's the one place where no matter where you're from, you're all the same.

Yep. I got involved in a lot of different kinds of groups, and I lived on campus which is a great way to meet people. I got to know people with different backgrounds and different opinions and learned how to work with people of all kinds. (Mostly. There will always be people I just don't understand.)

You get used to the food. Have to eat fast as you not have long, though you can always get more to eat if there is time. Up early and have a Bic Lighter to burn strings off your "Pickle Suit". Have to keep Everything in it's place for inspection. Hide the Shaving Razor you use and keep an unused one for inspection. Soap Dish clean so do not use soap and have Dry Clean Soap Dish, wash with your shampoo. Learn the little things/Short cuts to keep inspection cool. Pay Attention to how the Bed Made the First night as you will have to make it back the same tomorrow. "Woolly Boogers" have to be captured and disposed of. NEVER volunteer for anything and only talk if they ask, bring attention to yourself with little jokes and you will get their attention. LOL! Some is class room study, learning about chain of command, ranks who to Salute and How. Some Exercise, setups, push up that kind of stuff. Learn to shoot a gun, work as a team, sneak to the Bowling ally. Most everything you buy when you get there. The Bags we brought and clothes we wore went into a locked closet never to be seen again until we left for Training School. March everywhere. That some of it. Just make it through, be tough. You can do it and then the Tech School gets a little more slack and then when you get to your Permanent Base it get pretty fun. Like a regular job.

I have a fellow nursing student that just transfered from a small campus. She loved it because of the atmosphere. You feel like you're a part of the campus and culture because you get to know a greater percentage of the students. She got to know nearly all the FT professors at some point, constantly ran into students she knew, and felt at home there. The problem with the school we are at now...you can literally walk by thousands of people and not bump into a familiar place. It feels like a zoo and you don't fee like you are part of a campus community.

Whats your studying style?\nDo you like to study in groups? With a friend? Do you like to listen to music? Complete silence? Can you concentrate on your work when others are around?\n\nTry a college library... coffee shop...diner..at a park on a nice day...on the roof of your house...under the stars...by the lake...under a tree...in your car with the music barely audible...in a makeshift tent in your living room (like when you were a child)...in a tree...by a pool...on the toilet..

Here is a list I found:\n\nWhat do you enjoy doing in your free time? \nDoes your family live in-state? Do they like to visit and stay with you? \nHow often do you prefer to do dishes, vacuum, clean the bathtub, etc? \nAre you currently involved with anyone? Are they going to be an overnight guest? \nWhat in the house do you like to share (food, cleaning supplies, shower stuff)? \nWhat is your usual bedtime? \nWhat time do you get ready for work/class in the morning? \nHow often do you cook? \nWhat are your study habits? Do you prefer to study in the apartment or away from the apartment? Do you need absolute quiet to study, or do you prefer background noise (radio, television, etc.)? What time of day is best for you to study? \nWhere do you like to socialize in the evening? \nWhat kind of music do you listen to? \nWhat other debts do you have besides rent? (car, insurance, tuition, credit card debt) \nDo your friends like to come and stay with you? \nWhat kind of furniture do you have? \nDo you watch TV? How often? What shows? \nDo you usually pay your bills on time? \nDo you drink and/or smoke? How often?\n\nThis is from a college website, but maybe some of the same questions would apply.  Good luck!

It depends on where you're going and what the living arrangements will look like, but most dorm rooms really benefit from the following:\n1) Minifridge. Don't get one without consulting your roommate, though. Also, check your dorm policy (most will allow them, but be sure) and the outlet situation--most dorms were built when people plugged in a lamp or two, not a computer, microwave, stereo... Also, be aware that desperate students typically sell these CHEAP ($10!) at the end of the year. Might be worth a check on Craigslist or through the college newspaper.\n2) Rolls of quarters. You will need these for about eight million things, including laundry, copying, and vending. No one ever thinks of this, but it's still one of the most useful things to bring.\n3) A small-to-medium whiteboard, maybe with a calendar on it, maybe not. This can keep you organized, which is essential. A small one can be hung on your door for your friends to leave you messages--you'll be glad you have it.\n4) Any kind of compact storage solution--milk crates; wall-hanging things to put shoes in; compact but roomy stacking plastic cubes--is probably going to be worth its weight in gold no matter what the situation.  Go to a container store and look around.\n5) A complete shower caddy.\n6)A rolling bag for overnights or weekend road trips.\n7) A file cabinet. Much more useful than you might think--keep all your work organized and accessible through four years of college, which pays off when it's recommendations time as a senior. You can also show work samples to prospective employers, which puts you immediately ahead of the game.\n8) A big plastic pitcher. You don't even have to put beer in it ;) This was probably the single most useful thing when I went to college. Save money by making your own iced tea or lemonade or Crystal Light. Or just keep it full of cold water.\n9) High-quality, very absorbent towels are worth a splurge. So are high-quality sheets, especially flannel or denim (they need less laundering). So is a comfortable robe or other loungewear.\n\nPots, pans, hot plates, microwaves, and so on may be much less useful than you think. Keeping them clean can be a hassle; it's also likely that people will borrow them and not bring them back, clean or not. Most dorms frown on them too.\n\nThe best thing to keep in mind is that you are *not* trying to recreate home in the dorm room. Instead, you are trying to live as well as you can with as few things as possible. This will make things so much easier for you. The one mistake I see new students make is to bring everything but the kitchen sink with them. There's seldom enough room, and negotiating all this with a stranger can get things off on the wrong foot. Besides, chances are you're going to meet someone who brought a DVD player or Xbox or (insert gadget you thought of here). Go light and have room to grow, is my suggestion.  Good luck!

The one I had last semester was a program, which could act as a library management system!... That even had lots of facilities and everyone could add his/her personal facilities!...
