Maybe not entirely relevant, as I live in Denmark and that we wouldn't be going to the same college then :p
but in Denmark we don't have colleges, just universities, at least not to my knowledge. I'm planning on beginning to study Philosophy and Religion(no not theology, religion) next year, with philosophy as my primary and religion as my secondary I think (perhaps similar to your major and minor I don't know).
This year I'll do my military service (just exercises and some basic military training in a camp, which I have to do eventually anyway, might as well do it now I find, alternative would be to go to the uni right away..) and get somewhere to live for when I study and then hopefully also settle down in it for a bit.
