Returning for the Fall Semester


If you are a returning college student headed back to college, here are some things to think about:
                                                    
If you are doing well:
  • What learning strategies do you use that work well for you?
  • What academic habits do you have that are helping you be successful?

If you are struggling:
  • What have you been doing (or not doing) that is getting in the way of your success?
  • What positive steps can you take this semester to improve things?
  • What concrete learning strategies can you add to your studying?

For all students:
  • What classes are you taking this semester?
  • How are they spaced out during the day?
  • What will be good times for you to study?
  • Which class will be the most challenging?  What will make it challenging?  What learning strategies can you use in that class?  Is there help on campus for that class?

Think ahead and plan now how you will approach the semester.  Then hit the ground running that first week.
