How Can I Be Successful At UMF?

The four year plan is an excellent way to plan for success at UMF, and also all of the group work we did helped me to work with others who have the same goals in mind as myself, which I feel is a very imporant part of success at UMF.

I would like to know how bad it looks to potential jobs if it takes more than 4 years for you to finish college, because in my case I work to put myself through college and can only take a certain number of classes per semester as a result.

Good reflection. As for your question, come find me some time and let me introduce you to Dr. Grace. She is a former district superintendent in Maine (and her husband is currently a superintendent) and we can find out straight from someone who REALLY knows. In my limited experience, as soon as you say you paid your own way through college, it will become an asset and not a drawback.
