For College Students

How to Survive in College

Get organized
Use a planner with monthly and weekly sections to keep track of due dates and daily activities. You can also mark your calendar with important events like class times.
‍
Manage your time
Plan ahead to avoid cramming for tests and make sure to get enough rest.
‍
Meet with your professors
Professors schedule office hours to meet with students, so take advantage of this time to get to know them.
‍
Get involved on campus
Join a student organization, club, or sports team to make friends, learn new skills, and feel more connected to your school. And if you feel there is something missing on your campus, start a club.
‍
Communicate with your roommates
Set boundaries and communicate effectively with your roommates.
‍
Ask for help
Asking for help shows strength and that you know your limits. Don't be afraid to ask for HELP!
‍
Get to know your academic adviser
Your academic adviser can help with course conflicts, adding or dropping courses, and scheduling classes.
‍
Take Time for Yourself
Exercise, workout, join a sports team, book club, look for healthy ways to eat, rest, and love yourself!
