While we're managing the hustle and bustle of college, we're always looking for ways to save money, have fun, or even help us get that 4.0 GPA. Below are 10 websites that'll help college students do just that:

1. StubHub.

StubHub is the number one website to buy and sell tickets for events around campus. If you want to plan a fun night out with your friends, check out everything that’s going on around you and take your pick! Whether you’re looking for a music festival or a sports event, it’s the best place to grab tickets.

2. StudentRate

Studentrate is the ultimate website for discounts. Rather than checking if individual vendors offer student discounts, StudentRate compiles a list of student deals and discounts for you.

3. RateMyProfessors

Don’t get stuck with awful professors. Check to see what other people have to say about your professor before you choose their classes on RateMyProfessors.

4. Prezi

Prezi is a free online presentation software that makes your presentation look super professional—much better than the presentation themes on Microsoft PowerPoint or Google Slides.

5. Mint

Find out how much you’re really spending on your coffees. Mint tracks your transactions and gives you the breakdown of how you’re spending your money.

6. Huffington Post College

Huffington Post College provides news on all things college, ranging from Greek life to student debt.

7. Google Scholar

Next time you’re writing a research paper check out Google Scholar. It’s the literal Google of scholarly articles.

8. EasyBib

A true Godsend. Type in your source’s information and EasyBib will create the citation for you. EasyBib can format source types that I didn’t even know were an option for research.

9. InternMatch

InternMatch is a free service that allows you to create a profile and apply for internships or entry-level jobs.

10. Keep Me Out

When it is crunch time before your final exam or you just need to get your homework done. Keep Me Out will prevent you from visiting your most frequented sites for however long you determine.


It is always so hard to find the right website to get some help or just to get away from the campus for a while. Hopefully these sites help!

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:
