Why I Applied Early Action

Posted on December 28, 2020December 26, 2020

We’re in the thick of college application season, and that means you might be trying to figure out by which application deadline you should submit your application. Here’s what you need to know: Furman has four application deadlines: Early Decision 1, Early Action, Early Decision 2, and Regular Decision. But what does all of that…

You Made It to Winter Break. What Now?

Posted on December 12, 2020December 26, 2020

Fall semesters are always a rush, and finally reaching the finish line can feel like the greatest accomplishment in the world. Winter break is finally a time to slow down, rest, and relax after fourteen long weeks of juggling everything college life throws at you. But what do you do with all your new free…

Balancing a Job (or two or three!) at College

Posted on November 24, 2020November 21, 2020

If you’ve been following our Instagram, you might’ve seen my stories about how much I love my job at the Library, and if you check out the blog pretty often, you might’ve read my recent blog about how to navigate work-study. In the post about work-study I briefly mentioned how to balance work and school,…

Planning for Your Major

Posted on November 10, 2020November 6, 2020

I will admit… I’m a bit of a planner. And when I say I’m a planner, I mean that before I even stepped foot on campus for my Freshman year, I had mapped out a potential four year plan. (If you’re familiar with CliftonStrengths, then it’ll make sense that one of my top five strengths…

How-To: Work-Study

Posted on November 3, 2020November 3, 2020

As a low-income student, I am lucky to have much of my education financed by scholarships and grants, but there are still costs that are my responsibility to cover. I knew early on that I would have to find a way to make money to support myself through college. I just didn’t really know where…

How to Save Money on Textbooks

Posted on October 20, 2020October 19, 2020

Earlier this semester, I wrote a piece for the Paladin about the challenges that low-income students face on a college campus. For some students, it really is the choice between buying an expensive textbook required for class or buying groceries for the week. In the piece I wrote for the Paladin I interviewed current students…

Taking Care of Yourself in College

Posted on October 13, 2020October 12, 2020

At the beginning of my first year at Furman, I quickly invested my free time in joining student organizations, scheduled intentional time with friends, spent hours in the library (whether or not I was studying), and filled every gap of free time in between. I tried living my life just like those “A Day in…

Let’s Talk About Advising

Posted on October 6, 2020October 1, 2020

If you’re anything like I was before coming to Furman, you’ve probably already got some idea of what major you might want to pick once you get to Furman, maybe a minor or two, some clubs and extracurriculars that’ll be perfect for your resume, AND you’ve planned for study abroad, internship, and research experiences! Whew!…

A Day in the Life of a Commuter Student

Posted on September 29, 2020September 27, 2020

One of the coolest things about Furman is its 4 year residential requirement, meaning students live on campus for all four years. As a first year student, you live in a community with other first years, but have the opportunity to get to know and become close friends with students from all different class years….
