I elaborate on some information a first semester student should expect and the necessary steps needed to become acquainted with City Tech and its culture. I list some problems an incoming student might face transitioning into a college and the typical first semester a student in the Paralegal Studies & Law program. I also elaborate on the resources an incoming student need to take advantage of as soon as possible.
