Mastering Time Management
|
Time management. It sounds simple, but as a busy college student, it may not be easy to put it into practice. Between studying, going to class, extracurriculars, working, and trying to connect with other students, it often seems as if there isn’t enough time in the day. Don’t let poor time management overwhelm you or keep you from making the most of your college experience. Here are a few tips to help you master time management.
Use a Planner
The list of things a college student needs to remember is long: test dates, paper and project due dates, regular homework assignments, work schedules, and more. There’s just no way you can remember everything. Instead of trying to keep it all in your head, use a planner. Write down assignments and their due dates, upcoming tests, and other tasks. Having everything written in one place will ensure that you don’t miss any big deadlines and that you are prepared for whatever is on your schedule.

What tools have you found helpful when it comes to managing your time?
One of the things I looked forward to having as a college student was the freedom to choose what I do with my time. As a freshman, I rejoiced knowing I wouldn't have a counselor telling me what classes to take and when to take them, nor would my parents be giving me a curfew on school nights. This freedom was amazing for the first couple weeks of school. However, as classes, clubs, work, and my social life started piling up, it became very hard to juggle all the things I needed to do throughout the day. In other words, I needed to find a better way to organize my time in order to succeed academically, in my extracurriculars, and socially.
Ultimately, I found planners and online calendars worked best for me to manage my time. Not only do these tools increase the odds of my remembering all my commitments, but they also provide a centralized space to organize tasks according to level of importance and urgency.
