由于文理学院尤其注重本科教育，拥有专注于教学的强大师资，更好的本科教学资源和强烈的归属感， 她可以作为本科教育一个很棒的选择。下面的一些贴士是关于如何从文理学院得到最棒的体验。
10、 多与周边同学交流，去了解哪些教授是最棒的，并去修一些他们的课， 不管是什么课。因为，了不起的教授会使得他教授的任何一门学科变得妙趣横生， 而且使你终身难忘。它甚至会激发出你对一个新的学术领域的激情。
9、 充分利用学校给学生提供的各种辅导服务。 文理学院在帮助和辅导学生上是无与伦比的。例如， 新生引导咨询，写作辅导， 课程辅导，导师咨询等。不要犹豫， 走出去，寻求帮助-这是你进入文理学院学习的主要原因之一。
8、 不要做过多的课外活动，特别在第一年。从高中过度到要求严格的大学会是有挑战的。 掌握好节奏，有选择地参加若干社团或活动，专注于你的学业并参与一些认真挑选的活动。不要过度承诺和参与，宁精勿滥。
7、尽量平衡你的选课，每学期尝试选择多样性的课程，包括学科科目的多样性（目的是从一个宽广的学科领域中探索和学习并了解其思维方式）和所需的功课类型的多样性（如作文，考试，测试题，需要熬夜完成的家庭作业和大部头的研究论文，等等）
6、 在大学里可以考虑做一些原创性的研究。 与大众的印象恰恰相反，文理学院实际上是一个给大学生提供参与任何学科研究的理想之地。教授们热衷于让他们的学生参与研究，协助他们做研究， 或指导他们做一些他们感兴趣的事。你会收获申请研究生院所需要的自信，知识，宝贵的技能和经验，甚至会结识你一生的导师和朋友。
5、决定你想要做什么然后想办法实现它。文理学院是一个支持和鼓励学生自己去创造属于自己的经历的奇妙的场所。很多学生在学期中，或暑假期间，甚至毕业后，在学校找到资源或资金支持去完成他们的研究，实习，项目或工作经历。告诉别人你想做什么-这会引导你去到你从未去过的地方，或去体验你从未想像过的经历。
4、尽可能让自己认识更多的国际学生。国际学生在校园里通常属于最有趣和最投入的一群人。参与到任何一个你感兴趣的国际学生组织中。你会交到很棒的朋友，了解看事物的新的视角，而且你将会在世界各地都有落脚之地。
3、利用学校的校友网络和职业服务办公室。许多学生无视这些资源，直到面临毕业时才临时抱佛脚。文理学院的校友极其忠于于他们母校的校训并热衷于以各种方式回馈母校，包括给在校学习的，对他们从事的职业感兴趣的学生提供职业方面的资源和帮助。大学期间，早点与职业服务办公室接触，了解他们提供的诸多资源，不要等到最后一年。
2、考虑在大学期间做一些社区服务，大多数的文理学院办公室都会帮助学生在当地找到社区服务的机会。你会通过不同的方式了解社区，在提供服务的同时你会认识更多人，并且定期从大学生活的圈子中跳出来得到一些放松，会让你从新焕发活力。
最后
1、放松，尽你所能地去利用学校的资源去享受大学生活。相比较那些上满发条的高中，文理学院往往没有那么多竞争之处。学生努力学习但不是为互相竞争。所以放下拿自己与他人作比较的冲动，取而代之，充分把握你能得到的各种机遇，让自己浸淫在美妙的四年大学生活中。
Due to their exclusive focus on undergraduate education, dedicated teaching faculty, superb resources, and strong sense of community, LACs can be a wonderful choice for one's undergraduate years. Below are some tips on how best to take advantage of the LAC experience.
10. Talk with fellow students to find out who are considered the best professors, and take classes from some of them, regardless of the subject. Great professors tend to make any subject fascinating, and you'll always remember those classes – and you might just discover a new academic passion!
9. Take advantage of the many support services available to students. LACs excel in the level of support they offer their students, be it advising, writing assistance, academic tutoring, mentoring, counseling, etc. Don't hesitate to reach out and ask for help – this is one of the main reasons for attending a LAC!
8. Don't overdo the extracurricular activities, particularly during first year. The transition from high school to a demanding college can be challenging. Pace yourself, choose a few clubs and activities to join; concentrate on your studies and a few well-chosen activities. Don't over-commit. This is a case of less often being more.
7. Look for balance in your course selection. Each semester, try and choose a variety of courses, both in terms of subject matter (to explore and learn about a broad variety of disciplines and ways of thinking) as well as the type of work required (papers, exams, problem sets, nightly homework vs. long-term research papers, etc.).
6. Consider doing some kind of original research during your college years. Contrary to common assumption, LACs are great places to get involved in research, in virtually any discipline. Professors love to get their students involved in research, be it assisting them with their research, or mentoring you in something you find interesting. You'll gain confidence, knowledge, valuable skills and experience for applying to graduate school, and possibly gain an important mentor and friend for life!
5. Decide what you want to do and then seek ways to make it happen. LACs are wonderfully supportive places, and encourage their students to create experiences for themselves. Many have resources and funds available throughout the institution to support research, internships, programs, or work experiences, be it term-time, during the summer, or post graduation. Talk to people about what you want to do - it can lead to places and experiences you'd never expect.
4. Meet and get to know as many international students as possible. International students often are among the most interesting and engaging students on campus. Join any of the international students' organizations that interest you. You will make great friends, will be exposed to new perspectives, and will always have places to stay throughout the world!
3. Take advantage of your school's alumni network and career services office. Many students overlook these resources until facing graduation. Alumni of LACs tend to be extremely loyal to their alma mater and love to give back in many ways, including serving as career resources to current students interested in their professions. Get into the career service office early in your college career and learn about the many resources it offers – don't wait until senior year!
2. Consider doing some community service during college. Most LACs have offices to help students find service opportunities in the community where the college is located. You will get to know the community in a different way, will meet new people while providing a needed service, and will find the regular respite from the “bubble” of college life welcoming and rejuvenating.
And finally...
1.Relax, enjoy the experience, and take advantage of as much as you can. Compared to many high-powered high schools, LACs tend not to be competitive places – students work hard, but not in competition with each other. So forgo the temptation to compare yourself with others, and instead immerse yourself in the wonderful four years ahead of you, taking advantage of the many opportunities available to you.
