2. Remember:
WeekDAYS are for
studying and
WeekENDS are for
partying!
It sounds stupid and obvious but
people tend to for get this…
your parents pay over 10,000
dollars a year for your to first get
your education.
Partying is fun and all - but if it gets
in the way of your education, you
will probably regret this when
failing classes, and having to re-
take them just when you thought
you had enough credits to
graduate.
3. You will
actually have
to try.
Unlike high school, college
is much more difficult to
just barely get by. The
professors are more strict
and expect much more than
your high school teachers
did.
Study often and make sure
to do all of your homework.
4. Get on a
schedule.
Getting in a habit is very
important, especially when it
comes to studying or doing
homework. Set a schedule to
when you are going to
dedicate time to do your work.
It will be a pain, but in the end
when you have more time to
party and have fun you will be
very thankful you did.
5. Do not
procrastina
te.
Majority of the time in college,
dead lines are set far in
advance and you are never
given a reminder.
It will be much smarter to start
on things far in advance.
This will also be more
beneficial to you when the due
date rolls around and you are
already prepared!
6. Get
involved.
Don’t let all of your school
work overwhelm you. Get
out there, meet new people
and HAVE FUN!
College will be much easier
if you have great friends to
help you out a long the way.
7. Be sure to
get enough
sleep.
Do not stay up all night
craming for a test the next
day and try taking it on 2
hours of sleep.
It is better to study a little
everyday and get a good
nights rest.
8. Exercise and
Eat Right!
Many freshman gain weigt
their first year of college
because they are not used
to having so much freedom
in their diets.
Hit the gym regularly and
eat a colorful diet.
Don’t forget about the
“freshman fifteen”!
9. Build A Good
Relationship With
Your Roommate.
You and your roommate do
not necessarily have to
become best friends.
But at least try to live
together harmoniously or
you will both be miserable.
10. Don’t Go Home
Every
Weekend.
By going home every
weekend, you are going to
be missing out on a lot of
fun opportunities.
Face your fears and your
homesickness and stay on
campus.
11. Try Not To
Party Too
Much.
I know this is disappointing.
You’re in college. Party is
what your supposed to do,
right?
Work extra hard throughout
the week so your weekends
can be extra fun!
