You may be involved on your high school campus now, but when you become a college freshman, you will be entering into a world that is bigger, tougher, and much more difficult to feel connected. What you know now as comforts will be gone, at least for temporarily. Here's some advice-be prepared.
This may not be as drastic if you are attending a junior college because your community of friends will not be as rudely disrupted and your family likely lives close. However, when you go away to school, you will have to find a completely different community of friends and for some adjusting to college life is tougher than others.

Some will have the same life direction, major, and goals. They want what you want. You sit in classes with them--multiple ones. You study for tests, write papers, and present projects together. You will study at the local...

A bit of an abrupt ending...and you will be able to 'servive' better if you spell it with a 'u'! Otherwise, good even flow and sentence construction.
