orientation at the beginning of fall or spring semester.

experience, provides excellent content and resources to be a successful
student. It is likely that this class will be a part of your first semester.

classes, and be on time.
4. To reduce distractions,
sit near the front of the class.
5. Keep a copy of the syllabus for
each class so that you will know what is going on, what you will be doing, and
how soon you need to get it done.
6. Be a good listener. Focus and
concentrate on main points.
7. Take good notes in class, and
review your notes within 24 hours. The, review your notes periodically to help
you retail information. Index cards with key information are also a helpful way
to review.
8. Study! To be a successful
college student, study at least two hours a week for every hour you spend in
class. This is a minimum.

and plan study time when you are at your best to retain information.

study for short intervals with a break in between. For example, study for 30mins,
take a 3-minute-break, come back and review, then repeat the process.

classes for added help and study together when possible.
