Preparing for your first year
What Former Students Say
Nandipha Spencer – Law (University of Witwatersrand)
“Don’t lose focus; you realize on your first day on campus just how big the university is; don’t let that make you believe that you are small or irrelevant. Use that as a motivator to leave a lasting impression and make your mark. The only way to be ready is to trust yourself, to do your research and to believe in yourself”
Tankiso Pitso – International Relations (Monash University)
“Remember Who you are, why you are here, and what you want to achieve. Let that guide you; let that be something you remember every morning when you wake up. Look into the mirror and answer those three questions”
Kebeileng Mokgotlo – Audiovisual (Boston Media House)
“Study, study and study! Use the library and use the internet. Attend class, no one is going to monitor whether you go to class or not, but take responsibility, what happens with your life and your education is chiefly up to you. There is no such thing as a stupid question when you don’t know something – ask! Don’t be a loner; make friends, and make sure they are the kind of friends with the same goals and values as you. Stay away from “blessers”, don’t party too hard to the detriment of your education, if you have to party, do so responsibly”
