As Humber students head back to class, senior degree students and recent graduates have this advice to offer:
- Get involved with your program, actively participate and volunteer at events taking place in your field. -Katelynn, Interior Design, ‘11
- Treat it like a full-time job. Schedule your study time and your personal life. Build a strong relationship with your fellow classmates, as they are your greatest support system. - Kayan, Paralegal, ‘12
- Always attend classes. You need to be there in order to grasp all the material. - Branden, Criminal Justice, ‘12
- Learn time management quickly. College/University is different than high school. You have to keep up with readings and independent study to succeed. - Michael, E-Business Marketing, ‘12
- Be prepared to work long hours. Start your work early and stay on your game – it’s all about endurance. - Philippe, Industrial Design, ‘10
- Establish a routine from day one, as the work gets harder as you progress through the years. - Jorgen, Creative Advertising, ‘09
