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!

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Sorority Girls

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
