Are You A Recent High School Graduate? Check Out These
College Tips!

When many people think of college, they think of partying. However, don't do this too often if
you plan on being successful. College is a time to get your priorities straight and focus on
school first, and playing comes second. Use the tips presented here to help you succeed at
college where others fail. There is no reason not to succeed.


You should seriously think about taking your required courses at a local community college.
This is cheap and easier. There's no reason you can't transfer your credits to the college of
your choice once you've completed some core classes. This is a great way to cut the cost of
your education down to size if the price of a full four-year program looks too expensive to
you.

major are important, and you must concentrate on them. Education is important, but so is
good work experience. Work-study positions can help with college costs and add to your
resume simultaneously.


Do not overdo it when you schedule classes, especially your first year. It is tempting to
overload yourself and find you are struggling later. Be realistic. It is easy to burn yourself out
and not do well at any of them. Make sure to balance out the difficulty in your classes with
just a couple that are challenging in a semester.


Most majors require you to fulfill general education requirements that are not in your
particular field of study. Try your best even though you have little interest in them; it is better
to try your hardest.


Find a group of people to study with. It will be in your best interest to study in a group. This is
a great opportunity for everyone to support each others weak areas and further everyone's
performance. This is a good way to prepare yourself for an exam while having fun with your
friends.


Look at your professors as if they are your friends. Your professors should be considered as
a major resource that will help to open doors to better opportunities. Be sure to help if the
opportunity presents itself and ask a lot of questions. Establishing a solid relationship with a
professor can translate to better grades and increased opportunity.


Buy textbooks used. Textbooks can be expensive. If you already have to pay quite a bit for
your education, you're probably wishing to save a few dollars. Shop around at online retailers
and brick and mortar stores that have used books. Used books are a great way to save
money.
Try not to rely on electives alone as a method of selecting a major. Get involved in activities
on campus. Get a job or join a student organization. There is usually a multitude of activities
going on across campus any given week. Use these activities to help you find your passion in
life.


Put off getting a credit card until you are finished with college if you can possibly do so. A
credit card can be dangerous, and also comes with higher interest rates. Avoid credit cards;
student loans are enough to worry about.


Now you should have a better idea of what the college experience means. It's time to start
planning. It is an important time in your life, and you want to make the most of it.
