To go to college is tough; to remain, stay in college is tougher; to earn a college degree is toughest. But it's worth it! Survive college with these helpful and easy tips!
1
Don’t skip classes. Never ever skip your class. In college, every person has bigger and more responsibilities outside the classroom. Unlike in high school, you would have a hard time looking for your classmate with notes or books to borrow from. So in order to make sure that you always have everything ready, go to class and take down notes yourself.
2
Make a daily schedule. List down your plans for the day. Having a list of your daily to-do’s will make your day more manageable. After a task is done, scratch it off from your list.
3
Budget your time properly. If you have several extra-curricular activities to manage, make sure you don’t lose time for your academic concerns.
4
Be friendly with your dormmates. You will live with them almost every day of your life. Be friendly with everybody and make sure you make a couple of close friends whom you can turn to whenever you feel alone.
5
Be friendly with your classmates. You can always contact them for subject concerns – notes, group studies, group reports and the like.
6
Attend school activities. Have your own diversion. Too much focus on academics alone may burn you out easily. Join organizations and make friends with people, whom you can identify with,
7
You may apply for a part time job. If your time permits, you have the option to apply for a part time job. This way, you’ll have extra income to sustain your other needs or major projects.
8
Eat well. When you’re in college, the tendency is to either eat only instant food or to not eat at all. This should not be the case. There is too much pressure in college so make sure that your physical health is properly armored with the proper vitamins and minerals.
9
Dress up comfortably. Be comfortable in what you want to wear. College is the perfect ground for you to wear whatever you want.
