You'll be happy to have this advice before arriving on campus!

Maynigo also covers the important topic of taking care of yourself, which includes eating right, taking time to relax and learning to cope with stress. She talks about developing a social life as well as how to handle parties, drinking, sex, guys, dating and friends. A Girl's Guide to College is sprinkled with quotes and passages from real girls on all these topics. Maynigo breaks down her advice into 21 tips listed at the end of the book.
