It's easy to start the semester off saying that you are going to get straight A's with that amazing 4.0, go out more with friends, get more sleep, eat well, work out more, call your mom more often, and give work 100%...then reality sets in and your stuck wondering how you ended up crying to yourself in the corner of the library at 4 am and your holding a large to-go order of McDonalds. Life happens and it's definitely not convenient. So here are 10 resources guaranteed to save your life as a college student.

1.Office Hours

The best lifeline for any class is honestly attending office hours. It may seem tedious or difficult, but it proves to your teacher that you really are trying and also solidifies what might have been unclear during class.

2. Peer-Tutor

When that one professor makes no sense, go to another student in the class that you know is acing it OR better yet, go to a student who is paid by the school to tutor.

3. Mentor

If you need to talk out a few ideas or problems having a mentor for life in general is a must for success. The person who asks for updates about your success and goes out of their way to help you is a keeper. An older person/friend = more experience. Trust.

4. Academic Resource Center

Some campuses have a center to help you with academic goals and challenges. From writing essays to extra help on formatting those history notes- these wonderful people have you covered.

5. Online

When all else fails- look online for resources. Sometimes a visual instruction that is on repeat and at your command makes it easier to follow a lesson.

6. Career Center (or Something Similar)

Choosing an internship or future job is terrifying- luckily these individuals are specifically trained to help you succeed.

7. LinkedIn

Connections are a great way to stay in touch and understand how companies flow. Create a profile and search around.

8. Schedule App

Life is crazy- if you're on the go, few things are more helpful than a calendar. There are a variety of schedule apps to choose from that will better tailor your needs.

9. Write It Down-NOW

Writing things down by hand is a proven way to improve the chances you will remember (of course writing it in your schedule app also helps too).

10. Your Friends!

Friends are the best resource a person can have in college. They keep you grounded and accountable even when you don't want to hear it.
