But of course, there\u2019s studying too. There will be times where you find yourself writing papers, reading textbooks, and studying for exams.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cramming may not work as it did in high school, as you are now facing a much bigger, college-sized workload. Plus, your newfound independence and constant access to friends, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">will not<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> make things any easier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want to succeed in college (and we\u2019re hoping you do!), you\u2019re going to have to adapt your study habits to meet the new demands of college. Here are twenty college study tips that will help you pass with flying colors.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Tips On Studying For A Test<\/b><\/h2>\n<ol>\n<li>\n<h3><b><\/b>Find a Quiet Place to Study<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>One of the most important college study tips we can give is to find a quiet place to study. If you live on campus or with roommates, this is even more important, as sometimes friends and fun are just too tempting.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Luckily, college campuses offer plenty of space for studying. If one library doesn\u2019t work for you, another one might be a better fit. Spend time exploring different libraries to find the one that you work best in.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even within the library itself, there are often different floors and different options. Some students might enjoy sitting at a communal table, while others need a cubicle with absolutely no distractions.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another kinda-quiet study option is studying in coffee shops. That is if background noise doesn\u2019t distract you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The important thing is to find a quiet spot that works for you and ensures you won\u2019t be tempted to socialize rather than study.\u00a0 Many students fall into this trap and end up paying for it later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Switch Up Your Study Spots\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7005\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-rfstudio-3059654.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"442\" height=\"294\" \/>After you find your perfect study spot, it might be a good idea to switch it up just a bit. Things can still get boring sitting in the same spot for 8 straight hours straight, days on end.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To spice things up, try finding a few places to study and create a schedule for yourself. For example, you might start at a coffee shop from 9-12, grab a quick bite, and then switch over to the library from 1-6.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And one more thing&#8230; as comfortable as your bed may be: Don\u2019t study on your bed!\u00a0 <\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/theriseandshine.com\/heres-why-your-bed-should-only-be-for-sleeping\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Your bed should be a place only for sleeping<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"3\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Keep Your Phone On Silent Or Completely Turned Off\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There\u2019s not much point in being in the library or a quiet spot if you are going to spend that time socializing with friends on your phone.\u00a0 Put simply &#8211; phones can be a massive distraction. We all know how a few minutes of scrolling can turn into long stretches of time wasted.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re on your phone, you might also come across something exciting (or upsetting) that could stick in your head and make it nearly impossible to study.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The solution? Keep your phone on silent in your bag. If the temptation is still too strong, keep your phone turned off, or maybe just leave it at home.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"4\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Study what you Need to Know\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It may sound too good to be true, but oftentimes your professor will tell you exactly what you need to know for an exam. Our advice? Listen to them! They are on your side, they aren\u2019t out to get you. There\u2019s no reason to study the whole textbook if you don\u2019t need to.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"5\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Actively Study\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\" wp-image-6990 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-zen-chung-5537492.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"445\" height=\"296\" \/>Reading over the <a href=\"https:\/\/uteach.io\/articles\/online-course-development-create-and-sell-courses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">course material<\/a> is a good start, but to really master it you need to become an \u201cactive learner\u201d.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Active learning means actively doing something with the material rather than just reading over your notes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can do this in a number of ways. You can teach others the material, or even say the material out loud to yourself to make sure you understand it. You can draw pictures to represent different concepts or make flashcards. You can even re-write the notes you already wrote, as sometimes that helps it stick in your mind a little better. You can also rely on different study materials like\u00a0<a class=\"c-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.studocu.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" data-stringify-link=\"https:\/\/www.studocu.com\/\" data-sk=\"tooltip_parent\">StuDocu<\/a>\u00a0to refresh your learnings from a different perspective.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These tricks make studying more entertaining and will help you retain the information better. It will also make it very clear to you if you don\u2019t understand the material and need some extra practice.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"6\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Partner Up\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While some of these tips talk about finding quiet areas to study, that doesn\u2019t mean you need to study all on your own! If you study well with others, find a buddy or two to tackle the course material with. As long as you\u2019re doing more studying than socializing, this can be a great study tactic to adopt.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7006\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-mary-taylor-5896522-1.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"442\" height=\"294\" \/>Studying with a friend divides the coursework in two. You benefit from more notes and a friend who can help you with concepts you don\u2019t quite understand yet. It\u2019s also a great opportunity to explain the material and do some active learning.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As long as the main focus is studying, learning with a friend or two can be a great way to learn the material and can also bring you closer with new friends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"7\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Be Prepared On Exam Day\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being prepared on exam day doesn\u2019t only mean studying enough the day before. It also means giving yourself enough time before the exam so that you aren\u2019t rushed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eat a good breakfast before the test and leave yourself time to make it to your exam without having to stress and run. Arriving at the test feeling calm will help you ace that exam.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Organizational Study Tips\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<ol start=\"8\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Get Organized With Supplies\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Staying organized and making sure you have the correct supplies during college is absolutely key. The organization may look different from one person to the next.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some prefer binders, notebooks, and dividers, while others might use their computer for everything. If you do choose to go the digital route, there are plenty of apps that can help you stay on top of things.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Being organized is crucial to studying successfully. How can you possibly study if your notes are all over the place?<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"9\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Take Notes In Class<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6995\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-energepiccom-110473.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"423\" height=\"317\" \/>Now that you\u2019re organized, it\u2019s time to start taking notes in class. Note-taking is an invaluable skill that will help you pay closer attention, and will also help you when it comes time to study later.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It doesn\u2019t matter if you take notes by hand or on your computer. What matters is that you pay close attention in class and jot down important things that your professor says.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recording the class is another option. By recording the class, you can devote your full attention to what your prof is saying. You can also review the lectures later if you didn\u2019t pick up on everything that was said in class.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you do decide to use your computer to take notes, we suggest disabling the wifi to get rid of distractions (cough cough, social media).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"10\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Use A College Planner<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Once you have your supplies and are in the habit of taking notes, the final element of the organization is a college planner.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7007\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-bich-tran-760720.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"450\" height=\"299\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you didn\u2019t have a planner in high school, you should definitely consider getting one now. Planners are synonymous with adulting, and that\u2019s basically what you are doing in college. With a bigger workload, plenty of due dates, exams, and outside commitments, a planner keeps things organized and makes sure you are organized and on top of things.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Take your planner with you to every class and log assignments as soon as you find out about them.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If digital is your thing, you can use Google Calendar or a plethora of other apps to keep you organized.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Tips To Study And Managing Your Time Better<\/b><\/h2>\n<ol start=\"11\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Be Independent<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In college, you will experience newfound independence that you may have never experienced before. This is exciting, but it can also be intimidating. You will no longer have mom and dad by your side (at least physically), reminding you of important due dates and commitments you have. It will be your responsibility to remember these things by yourself and to make sure you turn assignments in on time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While less support from your family may seem scary, it is actually a great opportunity for you to learn to be independent. If you ever run into problems with due dates, try talking to your professors. They will try and help you work things out so you can turn your assignments in on time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"12\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Go To Office Hours\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-6992 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-fauxels-3184298.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"452\" height=\"301\" \/>Speaking of professors, all of them hold office hours for their students outside of teaching time<\/span> <span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a great time to stop by and get some one-on-one help with anything you\u2019re having trouble understanding. It also allows you to get to know your professor and vice versa.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Professors let their students know when their office hours are at the beginning of the semester. If you are unable to make it to their office hours, email them to set up a time to meet.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"13\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Learn How To Prioritize\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In college, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">especially<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> towards the end of every semester, you will have a lot of work to complete. You\u2019ll have multiple exams to take, and papers to hand in, all within the same two or three-week period. Honestly, it gets really hectic.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re going to need to learn how to prioritize and decide which assignments and which exams need the most attention on any given day.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Prioritizing also means being mature enough to know when you need to put school ahead of your social life, and maybe even a part-time job.\u00a0 During the more hectic periods in college, you will need to put anything other than studying on the back burner for a little bit.<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"14\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Learn When To Say No To Friends\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7009\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-920382.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"454\" height=\"302\" \/>It\u2019s safe to say that in college you will probably be presented with plenty of opportunities to hang out with friends. While socializing in college is extremely important, remember that if you don\u2019t keep your grades up, you might not be allowed to stay in college.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For this reason, you need to sometimes be able to say no to friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you have a lab at 8 am the next day, learn to say no to your friends. If you have a test coming up that you absolutely <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">need <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">to study for, learn to say no to your friends. If your paper is due tomorrow and all you\u2019ve managed to write is the same sentence over and over, learn how to say no to your friends.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We think you see where we\u2019re going with this. Going out will feel like more of a celebration when you\u2019ve finished what you need to finish.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"15\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Don\u2019t Wait For The Last Minute (again)<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019ve heard it before and we will tell you again, waiting for the last minute to study for a test or get started on a paper isn\u2019t going to turn out well. Instead of waiting until the last minute, make an honest effort to get started on things earlier.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One strategy is to study and review notes throughout the week, even if you don\u2019t have a test coming up. Start making an outline for a paper even if it\u2019s not due for another few months.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This will help you stay on top of your workload and prevent you from facing a ton of stress at the end of the semester when everything is due at once.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Mental Health \/ Wellness Study Tips<\/b><\/h2>\n<ol start=\"16\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Catch Enough ZZZs\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-6993\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-andrea-piacquadio-3767411.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" \/>This one is pretty simple. Your body and brain need sleep to function. All the caffeine and ramen noodles in the world won\u2019t keep you going nearly as well as a good night\u2019s sleep. Make sure you are getting enough sleep so that studying will be much more efficient.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Staying up late will also cost your mornings and afternoons which you could have used to finish a paper or study for an exam. Prioritize your course load as best as possible so you don\u2019t end up having to finish assignments at 12 am, the night before they are due. Trust us, your body and brain will thank you for it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"17\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Don\u2019t Overstudy\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As important as studying is, it is also equally important to give yourself a break. Overstudying can wreak havoc on your mental and physical health, which in turn can negatively impact your grades. Find a healthy balance. Don\u2019t study to the point of exhaustion and poor health.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"18\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Manage Your Stress\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"alignright wp-image-7010\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-anna-shvets-4557876.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"460\" height=\"306\" \/>With so many things going on, you might start to feel stress and anxiety. It could be the first time that you experience these emotions. It is very important that you manage these feelings rather than ignore them. They could be a serious sign that you need to take a step back or talk to a professional about the way you are feeling.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Many schools offer free mental health services for their students, and we highly recommend accessing them if you start to feel anxious. Don\u2019t feel ashamed about using them, as it is completely normal to feel this way.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"19\">\n<li>\n<h3><b>Don\u2019t Forget to Exercise\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We\u2019ve spent lots of time discussing your mind but don\u2019t neglect your body either! <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/education\/2016\/jun\/18\/how-physical-exercise-makes-your-brain-work-better\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exercise is a proven way<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to make your brain work better. Whether it\u2019s the beginning of the year, midterms, or final exams, physical activity is a great way to keep your mind and body in great shape. Not only that, but exercise can also be a great way to blow off steam and meet new people.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ol start=\"20\">\n<li>\n<h3><b> Treat Yo-Self!\u00a0\u00a0<\/b><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-image-6994 alignleft\" src=\"https:\/\/scholarshipowl.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/12\/pexels-rfstudio-3811128.jpg\" alt=\"study tips, study tips for college, how to study in college\" width=\"423\" height=\"302\" \/>Because why the heck not? If you\u2019ve been studying hard, you definitely deserve it. Do something nice for yourself. It can be as simple as a cupcake, or as debaucherous as a rowdy night out. Whatever works for you. You\u2019ll be working hard in college. It\u2019s important to be kind to yourself and give yourself a treat once in a while.\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>Final Thoughts\u00a0<\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">College involves a lot of studying, but that doesn\u2019t mean you necessarily have to study more or harder than you did in high school.
