Proud Gator

After my first week attending SF State University, I can say that college is an amazing place! Throughout the five days that I have been a SF State Gator, I have a lot of people and have already learned a lot. The learning process in college is so much different than it was in high…

Mosaic

Class of 2018, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffMarch 11, 2015

The amount that I’ve learned about myself in this limited time is amazing to me, but there is still so much I have to learn about myself. It is a slow and complex process that is unique to everyone. I find myself constantly looking back at old photos, social media profiles, sketchbooks, yearbooks anything that…

Bittersweet Summer

Class of 2018, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffNovember 24, 2014

Bittersweet. That is all that comes to mind when I think of this summer, and bittersweet is quite the understatement. The summer before college is suppose to be the most fulfilling summer of your life, or at least one of them. It’s suppose to be filled with road trips, sleepovers, hangouts in cities, amusement parks…

A new chapter in life.

Class of 2017, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy Jasmine JonesDecember 10, 2013

On July 18th, I had my college orientation. I woke up at 5:30 am, and was exhausted. The previous night, before orientation, was spent with me pondering on what college would be like. My day was starting off stressful due to negligence on my part. I had forgotten to investigate my route, and was thinking…

College Freshman? Definitely!

Class of 2017, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy Jasmine JonesAugust 30, 2013

Starting high school now seems like nothing compared to starting college. In high school, you receive everything on a silver platter. All you have to worry about is keeping your grades up to pass the class. And in your junior year, you start to think about college. Now that college has arrived, I did not…

Getting Ready for College

As I prepare to go into college, I can say I feel more ready than before. It hasn’t been an easy experience having to learn how to be independent as I prepare to take an important step in my life. I’m glad that I have people around me that are willing to help me. Without…

Big City Livin’

Class of 2016, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffDecember 4, 2012

Although it sounds cliché, college is like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get. I have always heard of the huge classes, deadlines, and the fast past working environments of higher education, but you do not know what to expect exactly until you are actually there. Coming as a freshman…

Lessons Learned from the First Semester

Class of 2015, San Francisco State, Student Success StoriesBy EdFund StaffFebruary 2, 2012

My first semester in San Francisco State was intense and a life-changing experience. Because of it, I have a different view about college and life. This semester I faced adversity, but I never gave up because I knew that if I did, I would not make it through college. Calculus was a challenging subject; there…

I like being in a new environment and seeing different faces every day.
