College acceptance confirms a student’s aptitude for the rigor of higher education but is no guarantee of success once there. Between acceptance and graduation, students face countless hurdles. Nearly half of entering students require six years or more to graduate, while 30 percent fail to return for the second year. Too many students enter unprepared for the major life transition from high school to college.
College success requires more than academic prowess. Social, emotional, financial, and life skills are critical. Students must stay focused, manage time, maintain physical and mental health, and engage within the campus community. Those who develop these skills before and during college will thrive. Transition preparation is key.
Fearless First Year is an indispensable handbook for college-bound students to proactively prepare for a smooth transition and college success while also maintaining their well-being. Written by an expert coach with insights from current students as well as checklists and exercises, this guide inspires students to develop and practice behaviors for a Fearless First Year at college and beyond.
