Surviving College

Surviving College, originally Jen's Guide to Surviving College, is an American sitcom about college freshmen beginning college at the University of Portland, Oregon, a fictional university. The series began as a mid-season replacement entitled Jen's Guide to Surviving College, after doing modestly well after Modern Family, the series was bumped up, into the Wednesday at 8:30 slot for a whole season, and renamed simply Surviving College. Then, beginning in Fall 2012, the series became a staple of Tuesday nights, airing there until its conclusion in 2019.
