As an international student, I was lost and confused to all the new things that were expected of me. At that time, I did not find many resources to navigate college and it definitively took me a couple of semesters to get into a rhythm (I got a 2.4 GPA my first semester). I hope this episode helps all the students out there. Episodes like this are what get me the most excited because they are the ones I wish I had when I was in school.
