1. Work on papers over the course of a week, and finish it a day in advance.
I know college can be crazy, and we do not always use our time wisely. But, if you write one page each night for five nights, you will have a better essay in the end. Also having the paper done a day in advance of the due date will allow you to look it over and fix things.
2. Get a certain amount of sleep each night.
This may sound silly, but sleep is so important, especially for stressed out college students. You will not be as efficient if you are sleep deprived, so go to bed an hour earlier every night and get good sleep.
3. Try something completely out of your comfort zone every month.
There are always things happening on campus, and some of the events may be something completely out of the ordinary for you. This is why you should just take a risk and do something new. Get a friend to go with you if you're too nervous to do it alone. Make your college experience great.
4. Find time for yourself.
Being social is very important in college, but you want to make sure that you are taking care of yourself and your needs. If you don't want to go out with your friends on a Friday night because you would rather sit in and watch Netflix, watch Netflix. You time is just as important as being with friends.
5. Spend your money wiser.
Every college student is broke, that's just how it is here in America. But, if you spend your money wisely, you won't go broke as quickly as you had the previous semester. Just because there's an event going on that $50 that all of your friends are going to doesn't mean you have to do it.
