Tip #9 Resources!

My ninth tip for surviving college is to get familiar and utilize the resources on your college campus. There are so many resources on your campus to make sure that you succeed as a student and to help you make the next step after college. Also, do not ever be afraid to use any of the resources offered to you because they are there for a reason and I guarantee you are not the only student utilizing them.

One resource that will help you tremendously is the tutoring center on your campus. Sometimes you have to pay to get tutored and at other colleges it is free. Do not ever think that you look dumb or weak for going to get help with a class. If anything, it shows that you are strong enough to realize that you are struggling, and you are putting in the work to better yourself.

Another resource on campus is career services. This resource is also very helpful. This is where you go if you need help writing a resume, looking for an internship, or even looking for a job when your about to graduate. This resource is more utilized when your about to make the next step after college. They will help you get prepared for the interview with your resume and they will help you find places to work. 

Another resource is where you can take your computer when something goes wrong. Your computer is going to mess up at least 10 times during a semester (maybe exaggerated). However, college WIFI sucks and half the time your computer will not connect. Also, if you need any help with anything to do with your computer you can just take it to the computer tech place on your campus and they will fix it in no time. 

Another resource on campus is counseling. This is another resource that you should never be ashamed of utilizing. Life happens during college and somethings we need someone to talk to who is not going to judge us or telling anybody. Yes, you could tell you best friend however, they could let it slip to someone else however a counselor is not allowed to share anything you tell them with anyone.

These are just some of the resources on campus to help you get through college. All the resources on campus are there for a reason. They are there to help you succeed, so use them while you can.
