As a student, you have so many resources at your finger tips that you didn't even know were there. Want deals? Want coupons? Want cheaper textbooks? This article can help you.

1. Slugbooks.com

Textbooks can get really expensive but Slugbooks helps with that. This is my favorite website to look up textbook prices. You type in your books title/author/ISBN and it will search all through the internet to get you the lowest prices.

2. Translate.google.com

Google Translate is really helpful when writing papers, just copy and paste it in, put English to English then it will read it to you and will be much easier to find any mistakes you might have made.

3. Your schools scholarship page

Honestly this is probably the most helpful website your school could possibly give you. Go through and apply for all of them in your free time, literally make it a job. Remember it's free money.

4. Quizlet.com

With Quizlet you can make your own notecards that you can use on your phone, computer and tablet to take with you anywhere. You can also use it to look up your class and find other students notecards and past quizzes to help you study.

5. Myfridgefood.com

My Fridge Food is mostly helpful for people that live in apartments but if you live in a dorm you can use it too. With this website you can type in whatever is in your fridge and get recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner or snacks to make.

6. Lozo.com

Before going grocery shopping, go to lozo.com, type in your grocery list and get coupons for almost everything!

7. Amazon.com

Amazon has great prices on everything and students get 6 months of free prime which means free shipping!

8. Ratemyprofessors.com

On this website you can look up ratings for professors you're thinking of taking or are stuck taking in. It's also very helpful for others if once you finish the semester you put your own reviews up.

9. Studentrate.com

Being a student rocks because you get tons of deals, student rate puts them all together for you!

10. Spotify.com

Everybody loves listening to music, with Spotify Student you only have to pay $4.99 a month compared to $9.99 a month. You also get the first 30 days free!

11. Linkedin.com

Linkedin is an online resume. You can put a bunch of stuff about yourself and even put the link to it on your paper resume. Many employers prefer to use it.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.

You have three assignments due and little time to work on them because of your job. You’re running late because you’ve hit snooze one to many times after yesterday’s long hours. You dizzily reach for a hoodie, craving its comfort, and rush for a speedy exit, praying you will have time to pick up coffee. Does this sound familiar?

Others have slaved away many nights under the fluorescent lights, and are slightly annoyed to find their study space being invaded by amateurs.
