Are you having a hard time sorting fact from fiction when it comes to college? Find out what's actually happening behind these six myths about college life.
“I heard that professors are going to give so much homework you won’t have time for anything else.”
“Well I heard that if you don’t make friends your first week you’ll be a loner all year.”
“No way. I heard that you don’t even need to go to class. It’s not like anyone’s making you.”
There are some crazy college myths out there, but don’t let them fool you. Let’s disprove those stories so you can be more prepared when you first step on campus.
Myth #1: Professors are going to drown you in homework
We’ve all probably heard that college professors aren’t going to be as nice as high school teachers. That’s just not true! Once you get to college, you’re an adult, and professors treat you like one. They know you have other classes, friends and maybe even a job to divide your time among. Most professors let you know exactly how much work is required of you and exactly when everything is due. If something happens and you can’t finish an assignment on time, most professors are understanding and will work with you, not against you.
