OpenStax College Success is a comprehensive and contemporary resource that serves First Year Experience, Student Success, and College Transition courses. Developed with the support of hundreds of faculty and coordinators, the book addresses the evolving challenges and opportunities of today’s diverse students. Engagement, self-analysis, personal responsibility, and student support are reflected throughout the material. College Success also includes an array of student surveys and opinion polls, and OpenStax will regularly provide the results to adopting faculty. This is the official print version of this OpenStax textbook. OpenStax makes full-color hardcover and B&W paperback print copies available for students who prefer a hardcopy textbook to go with the free digital version of this OpenStax title. The textbook content is exactly the same as the OpenStax digital book. This textbook is available for free download at the OpenStax dot org website, but as many students prefer to study with hardcopy books, we offer affordable OpenStax textbooks for sale through Amazon as well as most campus bookstores.

This book... So much to say about this textbook.

This book taught me that any concerns I have ever had for my college career, I had no reason to worry. For example, it told me that, "thinking helps in many situations" (a direct quote). It's wonderful to know that this book wants to tell me the most practical knowledge, knowledge that I have already learned because of common sense. It also gives helpful tip like "college is expensive" and "sleep is good for you". This book is chock full of things you already know, and it never ceases to amaze how much basic knowledge they can shove into a textbook and sell it for a ridiculous amount of money.
