Hello Kirti,
Being a first year student, you have to concentrate on improving your communication skills and general aptitude. For this you can start participating in various literary events at college level.
As far as extra courses are considered there is a huge lot available. First you have to decide your field of interest. If you are interested in programming go for courses like C++, JAVA etc.
And if you are interested in networking you can go for Microsoft Certifications and Cisco certifications. Certifications like CCNA and CCNP include hard core networking and if worked upon properly have good scope.
But everything depends on your interest. If you are more interested in web development, you can go for basic HTML and PHP alongwith javascripting.
