It may seem like college students have it together and know what they are doing all the time, but believe it or not, we don't. However, these websites and apps make it seem like we are on top of things and help our lives seem a little more put together.
1. Mint
Mint helps you easily track your spending, pay your bills, and track your credit score. It is a very user-friendly app that takes very little effort to pay the bills.
2. Create & Cultivate
This website is targeted more towards women, but it gives you some inspiration and confidence to keep doing what you want to do in life. It is a movement for women looking to create and cultivate the career of their dreams. They have a blog and even host pop-up events where they talk about women empowerment!
3. Work Party
This website is very similar to Create & Cultivate. It is run by women who like to take on their own spin on work. They have a blog, podcasts, and other events to help women get involved!
4. The Lala
The Lala is a magazine for women in their 20s, and it has great ideas on how to empower women. Some of their articles include "Brand Ambassadors for College Students" and "How To Inexpensively Continue Learning After College."
5. Rate My Professors
This is helpful for all college students deciding which class to take. Professors definitely have different teaching styles, and you don't want to be stuck with a professor who has a very low rating. Rate My Professors has reviews from students who recently took class with that professor, so you can find out if the professor is a tough grader, bad teacher, has boring lectures, etc.
6. Instructables
Instructables has an endless amount of ideas for any DIY project. They have easy-to-follow instructions and creative ideas.
7. Coggle
Coggle is a very helpful tool to use when creating mind maps. It coincides with Google Drive, so it is very easy to share with others.
8. JoyRun
Joy Run is the perfect app for college campuses that don't have a lot of restaurants that deliver. All you have to do is the pick the restaurant you want food from, and soon enough someone will say they are making a run there and you can place your order!
9. Studentrate
No one likes to spend a lot of money on textbooks that they are only going to use for a semester. Studentrate has discounted prices for textbooks, travel, stores, and Netflix.
10. Tomato Timer
Tomato Timer sets a timer so you are able to focus and study for 25 minutes, and then it gives you a five-minute break. It is an easy way to stay focused and then reward yourself at the end with a break

These are just a few of the websites that have stood out to me, but there are plenty of others out there. With all the resources online, you can find an app or website for almost everything.
