Here is some helpful information for success in college:

• Set Goals
  • Remember why you started or went back to school. What do you want to accomplish? Write your goals down and keep them in a place you see often.
• Time Management
  • Remember to keep a balance in your life. Schedule a time for studying and school work but also time to have fun and relax.
• Organization
  • Keeping track of notes and assignments will help with your stress levels. Use a planner and write down when things are due. Organize your paper and digital files.
• Be Prepared
  • Sometimes life doesn’t go according to the plan. Don’t stress! Know that the unexpected is not the end of the world and there is always a solution.
• Use Your Resources
  • We all need help sometimes. Research Coaches can help you with research, your professors are a great resource, also your classmates can be a great source of help and support.
