The reason being, I don't want too much debt when I get out of college, and also, I would like to meet someone I am compatible with to be room mates!

What are common mistakes, in college, that are easy to avoid?
We all roughly face the same #obstacles and #challenges during our college education. However, it can be quite difficult sometimes to face them without any #advices.

Besides, if you can get #tricks for past students, it can be enriching because it will make you have better grades while enjoying your student life even more. #college #college-life #student-life #guidance
