As you get closer to graduation, it’s easy to assume you’ll just “figure it out” when you get to college—but these stories show how quickly things can feel overwhelming without a plan. In Part 1 of this 2-part series, we’re reading real college stories from students so you can learn from what they experienced before you step on campus. Saying yes to everything can stretch you too thin, avoiding honest conversations (like with a roommate) can build frustration, and staying too tied to high school friends can keep you from building new community. One of the biggest takeaways: your faith won’t grow on autopilot—you have to be intentional about it. Learn from these stories now so you can walk into college prepared.
