Transitioning Back on Campus

As Winter Break is finally over and students have arrived back at campus, it's like starting a new year all over again. New classes have started. Some students may be living in new housing arrangements. You may have just transferred to a new school.

In any case, a smooth transition into a new semester allows for an even smoother ride throughout the rest of the semester. Here are some tips that you may find helpful.

1. If you've moved, get reacquainted with your surroundings. 

There may be new restaurants, bars, parks and stores that are now in walking distance to your new home 

and weren't before.

2. Start the semester off right, meaning stay on top of your homework and reading from the beginning. 

If you start procrastinating and not attending class now, 

you're bound to continue the trend throughout the rest of the semester.

3. Stay healthy! Get plenty of rest and remember to eat throughout the day. 

Being busy isn't a good justification for pulling all-nighters and skipping meals. 

If you don't take care of yourself, your immune system is sure to go down the tubes and you'll definitely be missing class for sickness.

Try to find a daily routine that you can stick to! Some type of structure will definitely help you be successful!

Good luck with Spring Semester! Check back regularly for tips on wellness, health and college life to help you successfully make it to summertime!
