How to Get the Most Out of College combines a unique perspective, format, and structure. Rather than see college as something to navigate, this book helps students see college as something they take charge of to create their best experience and combine academic, social, and career aspects of college. ¿ The practical suggestions on how to do this are formatted to be easily browsed and understood, with a sentence or two on what to do, the evidence and reasoning behind it, and how to do it, along with a short student story so students can hear from each other directly. ¿ These tips and suggestions are structured in a way that provides general advice to help all students, first on what to know before they go to college and then on the core aspects of the college experience: classes, support services, community, campus, technology, and career. These are complemented by specific advice for different student identities: first-generation students, students with disabilities, students of color, students with children, LGBTQ+ students, transfer students, veteran students, and student-athletes. ¿ How can all students get the most out of college? Elliot Felix, Founder, Brightspot Strategy, and Partner, Buro Happold, and an educational consultant to more than 100 colleges and universities shares short, practical advice that connects the academic, social, and career aspects of college to help students, parents, and higher education leaders see the student experience not as something to navigate or get through but as an experience to create using the building blocks in the book. ¿
