Publisher Description: This updated edition of a popular title has everything girls need to know about getting through the fast pace of college life. It includes the basics that all parents would want their college student to know, like how to do laundry, how to manage money, and how to survive classes. It also covers the essentials that girls really care about, like how to turn a dorm room into a personal palace, how to get along with roommates, how to maximize their social lives, and how to navigate the college dating scene. Packed with advice from the perspective of a big sister and filled with anecdotes written by real-life college girls, this guide serves as the perfect survival manual that girls will turn to again and again throughout their college years. |
