Things to do before starting school

Here are some of my tips for things I recommend doing before going off to college!!

Making a little extra money before school starts can be so helpful because I spent a lot more money in college than I thought I would.

Cleaning out your closet is huge because there is a good chance you might not have time like this at home again and de cluttering now is always great!

I always talk about why I LOVE extracurriculars in college, so start seeing what’s out there.

Prepping is the best way to start off in a good spot in your classes.

I have more so let me know if you want a part 2!

... Read moreAs the school year approaches, it's essential to make the most of your time before heading to college. Start by finding a side hustle such as babysitting or dog walking to help bolster your budget. The transition to college can be surprisingly expensive, and having some extra savings can ease financial pressure. Next, a thorough closet clean-out is advisable. You'll want to declutter your space, making sure you only bring essential items to your dorm. Additionally, research clubs and organizations that interest you. Getting involved early helps you connect with like-minded peers and can enhance your college experience. Lastly, take some time to review key concepts from classes you plan on taking, especially if you're using AP credits to skip introductory courses. Prepare adequately now to ensure a smooth transition into school and foster a positive start to your college journey.
