“The Freshman Survival Guide is an invaluable resource for a first-year student. Grounded in experience and a discerning approach to education, it will equip you with the resources, tips and powerful insights you need to embark upon a successful first year.”
―Conor O’Kane, Assistant Dean for First Year Students, Fordham University
“If I had been handed this book prior to the beginning of my first semester in [college], I would have had an advantage. For a new college student, feeling a sense of community and understanding can be the difference between staying in the shadows and breaking into the light.”
―Haley Sherif, Educational Advocates College Consulting
“There are several college preparation books out there, but very few provide the depth and diversity of viewpoints that this book does. The focus on the varied challenges that college students face and the practical, honest advice make The Freshman Survival Guide an ideal text for a First-Year Seminar or a college prep class. For advisors, this book serves as a useful reminder of the holistic experience of college and can be used as a resource, as academic advising goes beyond identifying a student’s major or sequencing courses to encompassing the many important aspects of students’ lives.”
―Mark Ward, Center for Academic Advising and Retention, Eastern Washington University
