As syllabus week comes to a close you're probably wondering what to expect next. I know syllabus week is a week where you are just learning to get around campus and figure out where your classes are, but syllabus week is also a time to figure what clubs you would like to join and making new friends along the way.
1. Get Organized
You have probably got a lot of paperwork from all of your classes, and if you're anything like me, it's probably all over your desk by now. Chances are you are going to need those papers later on in the semester. Get a binder or folders to organize your papers so that way you know where everything is.
2. Class is going to get tough
You may be going to class now and thinking 'wow all my classes are pretty easy." Well, some of them may stay easy, but chances are that they will get harder. Maybe not much harder, but you will still have to put in more effort than before.
3. It's not all about partying
I like to party just as much as the next person, but when it comes to getting your work done that definitely comes first! It is also important to go out and have a good time, so just make sure you are balancing both.
4. Make connections
Making connections is key! When syllabus week first starts you are meeting so many people you don't really know what to do. Go find those people and network with them and with your professors because it will help you out in the long run!
5. HAVE FUN
College is considered to be the best 4 years of your life, so you have to make them count. College is how you choose to make it, so make it great!
