2. GO TO CLASS. IF you cannot go to class, call the prof and tell him or her.
3. SIT IN THE FRONT ROW or at least the first 5 rows.
4. NO CREDIT CARDS
5. BUY BULK -- Go to Sam's Club and buy your soap and other toiletries in bulk.
6. Learn to do your own hair  especially with you being from New York. What city is UNC in?
7. HAVE FUN!! I wish I could go back. Don't most of us?
8. Get your GPA as high as you can the first semester. It is easy to go down but harder to get it back up. Trust.
I went to Amazon and they have some books. I never read these could not remember the title of the one I did read.

I totally agree with all these.
I have one bit of advice. Ask around for books! The cost of books are ridiculous! I attend NC Central U. I spent around $400 for 4 books and I only really used one! The professors only used the books for reference! So, unless the book deals with your major and you plan to keep it, check the library to see if the book is there or in other libraries in the area.
