• Make a weekly schedule to make sure everything you need to do gets done.

• Make sure to place blocks in your calendar each week that are dedicated to studying for each course.

• Make sure to take time away from your phone each day.

• Include both academic and non-academic commitments - including work, appointments, meals, and leisure - in your schedule.

• Schedule things you need to do before you schedule extras that you'd like to do.

• Don’t over commit: try to avoid cramming your schedule with activities and tasks, instead leaving some free time for flexibility

• Spread things out your time: try to spread activities without fixed times across the week so that they are not all concentrated on already busy days.

• One way to get started: on a small whiteboard, label each day of the week, noting free time each day. Then, fill each day in manually with your tasks in order of due dates/importance.

• As soon as an assignment is given, make a realistic timeline to finish all of the work by the due date.

• When registering for courses, make sure the courses you want - as well as the courseload that comes with them - will fit around your existing schedule for the semester.
