Best bit of advice for students looking for a college/university? Go to the campus and look around. Talk to students and professors about what they like about the school. But…always, always choose the school that YOU want to go to, not your parents, or your friends, but where you want to go!
Most embarrassing "college" moment: On the first day of class, I went to the wrong one. It took me a few minutes to realize it and by then I was too embarrassed to leave, so I just sat through the class took notes.
