"How can you get the most out of college? It's not by thinking of college as something to navigate or get through. Instead, imagine how you can take charge and create your own college experience, one where you feel connected and supported, find your program and career path, and take full advantage of what college has to offer. This book shows you how. It starts by helping you understand yourself, your goals, and your college options and then covers classes, community, campus, careers, and more, with 127 short, practical tips and examples. These tips are based on the author's work with more than 100 colleges and on his interviews with dozens of students and other experts." --
