Sameee
watching this video is like a full circle moment for me bc a video of yours that i watched YEARS ago made me do dual enrollment & now i am going into college as a sophomore 🎉
omggg 🥹
Also, don’t be discouraged if your friend group changes. Everyone eventually finds theirs groups and especially if you’re in a big friend group, know that all of you guys are not always gonna find time to hangout with each other.
Love your work❤
from a senior graduating this fall and has lived on campus the entire time (outside of being home bc the pandemic) 1. for students who either have to dorm or want to, do not expect to be besties with your roommate! if you end up being best friends PERFECT, but it is completely fine to not be. if you have problems with your roommate, TELL YOUR RA! their responsibility is literally to help you. also proceed with caution when you want to be roommates with someone you already are best friends/friends with dorming or living off campus. being their friend is not the same as being a roommate and sharing a space. 2. utilize campus common spaces and free resources 3. friendships/friend groups fall apart sometimes, and that is okay. everyone is growing and becoming them. 4. communicate with your professors and participate in class. you'd be surprised by how helpful it is do so. I've had many of my professors kindly allow me to turn in assignments late due to personal circumstances even though they listed in their syllabus that will not accept late work or provide extensions regardless of what the reason is
note for roomates: communicate the problem(s) you are having with your roommate to your roommate FIRST, and if things don't resolve then involve your RA.
A tip I have for commuter students is to find an on-campus job that you can go to in between classes. I wasn’t a commuter, but I worked with one and she said it helped her make friends and feel more a part of the community.
I'm a junior, but knowing that I literally graduate/go to college in over a year really slapped some sense into me but also terrified me. I also technically grew up with you (i watched you when i was in middle school), so this brought me so much comfort
I’m a junior too should I apply to college my senior year or senior summer I really don’t know lol
The way I remember watching your ap/dual enrollment vid and now we're here 😩time fliesss
🥹
as a sophomore in college this is very much so needed! thanks aliyah!

This video is sooooo on time 😂❤ thank you Aliyah girl I needed this one
I needed this video. I’m starting college in two weeks, this helped me out a lot ❤️
Thank you so much for this. I definitely learned somethings I did not know about college. I took a gap year after high school and now I'm starting to get out there and consider more possibilities for myself. I really do appreciate any advice /info I can get on this topic. Just like you said I also always loved learning on my own terms rather than just by the book . I'm just excited for this next chapter of my life , finding new things about myself and stretching my own horizon ❤❤❤
i'm starting college next week! this vid reassured me a lot and i feel a little more prepared than before, thank you
This video came at the perfect time because I start my third year TOMORROW MORNING! I will definitely be using your tips because I know that anybody uses Notion, oh I know it's a good time. Love all your content girly and wish me luck 💗
needed this as an sophomore in college. love your videos 💞
Love this video! I graduated in 2021 and I am so glad to be done with college. Also, love the makeup in this video :)
I rewatch this video in times when I'm struggling as a university student, I love your videos aliyah!! Can we have another college advice video, it's coming down to the end of the semester.

Thank you for the advice, love all of your videos and keep up the good work. You will have bright future, I am a sophomore at college. I hope you can do a part 2.
needed this thank you
ofc!!
as someone who went to community college in my hometown on the west coast then transferring but apply/going to a&t was a surprise and last minute. it definitely was hard first semester but it did get better, i finally found my people then going out helps. bc Greensboro made me very sad and depressed that first semester. ofc i changed my major from humanities & arts to a science knowing i’m pushing my graduation back a lil smh.
i felt the same way when i was at uncg 🥹 but at the end of the day, you're getting the degree that fits you! you're doing amazing!
it’s crazy in your last video from your experience and mine a location of a school can really make or break your experience. thank you for that 🫶🏽! you as well, helping people all over!
Perfect timing girl 🙏
Going into my second semester of my first year of college and this def helped!! ❤
Loved thisss!! I start college this year too!!!
❤❤❤❤❤ I love you and your videos so much
omg i was watching a video and i got an eos ad and you were in it 🙏🏽🙏🏽
omg 🥹
schools beating my ass so now i get to binge aliyah while I get work done !
i literally start college tomorrow this video is a blessing lol
even though I'm going to be doing undergrad starting my university journey online this semester, this vid was rlly helpful 🤍
omgg samee
I start college in 2 days and this video was definitely needed
Me personally I am only a junior in highschool but like as long as it's a video from you ima watch it!!
The way my yaw dropped when she started reading one of my questions ahhhh I’m so happy
i hope i could help you with my answers!!
@@aliyahsimone you did! my professor will get annoyed with all the emails he’ll be getting
Perfect timing lol I start tmr 🥲
I think because of mt family circumstances I got to apply to all colleges for free with waivers from counselors but sadly I was late on applying for those rlly good colleges like nyu or Ivy
I think this applies everywhere but if you took the SAT for free you can also waive your college app fees :))
Girl you don’t realize the way we be needing you pleaseeee
i shall share my experiences more often!
The advisor thing imma keep that in mind since im still getting registered for college. Cause this tells me not to stress over an advisor who’s not gonna be helpful .
def do not stress over an unhelpful advisor!!
i miss these sit down advice/chit chat videos
hopefully they make a comeback!
depending on how this performs of course!
Have a great week 🙂
i jumped to this video
i hope you enjoy!
@@aliyahsimone i did girl thank you so muchhhh
I’m glad my school waived my application fee for my colleges on the common app, I applied to at least 15
omg???
can you make a video on how to get your shit together. I'm 18 and instead of getting help or ideas , all I'm getting is lecturesssss like okayyyyyy
Big sister really pulled through
who am i to leave yall hanging!
I just realized I’ve literally grown up w you😃
right i’ve been here since like 6th grade now im a senior in high school 😅
@@jae8940omg literally same!!
Me as a senior in high school is crazy an soon to be a college student
it's such an interesting experience but def nothing to be afraid of!
@aliyahsimone OK and thank you
Watching this even though I graduated nursing school already lol

Hi
To apply for schools there are fee waivers people can qualify for !
i TOTALLY forgot about these!

@@aliyahsimonethe way that covid is still spreading I really do 💀😭
I’m starting college in 2 weeks and my ANXIETY is insane lol

No cause I think that’s crazy paying to apply for college like 70 dollars plus is crazy..they act like they not finna get paid for us going to they school ..I was speechless about the fee🤐
Are there 4 years of college?
