While living on campus can be exciting and empowering, it can also come with many growing pains.   Especially for those transitioning to college for the first time, living in the residence halls can present a number of new challenges like sharing a living space with someone else (perhaps for the first time), increased responsibility and autonomy, homesickness, and living away from your familiar support systems.   Sometimes all of these difficulties add up, making it difficult to be successful and enjoy your college experience.
