In about 3 weeks, I start University at the U of A.... pretty nervous and excited at the same time. I don't know what to expect really for the first year, other than 'studying'.. seeing if I screw around/getting drunk= waste of $$$ and time. (In addition, a beating from my parents) So if any of you guys went to University, what tips do you have for a fellow like me as a freshmen and is it worth partying hard to be 'first priority' over studies?

People tell me that the first year of University is probably the best times of their lives with all the drinking and partying, yet I really want to do well in my studies to get into the business faculty in the second year.
