Re: Good Luck Freshmen!
I'm going to echo what Sanddrag said, with one clarification: Get one credit card, preferably from your home bank. Use it occasionally (once or twice a month), and always pay it off. It'll help your credit in the long term.
Other than that, I would say to develop at least one passion in college. I wound up getting three (WUSC-FM, Preston College (my residence hall), and FIRST), but I wouldn't recommend going that far, especially freshman year. Having so many things on top of classes kicked my butt in some aspects of life last year.
But whatever you do, don't switch to a major in partying and a minor in girls/guys.
Good luck--do well!
