    Be prepared to branch out and work hard for everything. Classes are cool, not really too difficult, difficult at all really. Time management is key though. Social Life requires alot of personal effort especially when it comes to on campus activities. Be prepared to learn alot about yourself...and build patience..because,the easiest way to put it is, Fisk is not for everyone and you will know if its for you because in a sense, it will choose you. Expect greatness if you come here...because if you are the type of person I am.. you will be motivated to promote change.
