* SEE YOUR ACADEMIC ADVISOR REGULARLY. AT LEAST ONCE EVERY semester, SIT DOWN with your advisor and talk about what you've taken, what you need, and ANY important deadlines/applications in your program.
* KNOW YOUR PROGRAM REQUIREMENTS. Seriously, check out your requirement sheet so YOU KNOW what you need to take. Know your pre-requisites, and anything you need to take sequentially. Your advisor can only help you if you are knowledgeable about your program and know your requirements.
*If you are UNSURE about what major you would like, do NOT DECLARE ONE freshman year. It's okay to be undecided (or what KSU calls "exploratory") for a year. Most schools have special classes, programs, and career exploration materials especially for those people who are undecided.
*If you're receiving financial aid (most people do), KNOW WHAT YOU'RE EXPECTED TO DO TO KEEP IT. Make sure you know what GPA you need to keep your scholarships and other aid.
