While getting accepted to college is a major achievement, succeeding in college and making it to graduation is perhaps an even bigger achievement. According to a 1998 ACT study, over 25 percent of students at four-year colleges and universities drop out after their first year, and only about half the students at four-year colleges and universities graduate within five years. Our article "The Transition to College" introduces the skills and strategies that play a role in succeeding in college so that you can start planning for college when you are still in high school. Once you are in college, the issues are no longer hypothetical but an important part of your everyday life. Among the most important skills that will help you make it through college are effective time management and planning, and the knowledge of how to use college resources.
Time Management and Planning College is notorious for being a busy time; the problem of having a full schedule is often compounded by the fact that college life tends to be unstructured. A typical day might include an 8:00 a.m. English class, a 9:30 a.m. economics class, an 11:00 a.m. meeting with one of your professors, a 1:30 p.m. Spanish class, 4:00 p.m. practice with the soccer team, and an evening shift working in the dining hall. And this doesn't even include eating, studying, hanging out with friends, or going to meetings of clubs and organizations. Here are some tips for staying organized: - Keep a daily planner in which you write all your commitments
- Don't commit yourself to more courses and activities than you can handle -- for instance, if you are on a sports team that competes in the fall, plan to take a lighter course load that semester and a heavier one in the spring
- Find out early what courses are required for your major and get started on them so that they don't all pile up during your final semesters
Using College Resources Colleges are communities, and the more involved you are in your community, the more likely you are to stay in college and complete your degree. Several studies -- such as those by Alexander Astin, UCLA professor of higher education and work in the Graduate School of Education and director of the school's Higher Education Research Institute, and Arthur Chickering, senior associate at the New England Resource Center for Higher Education -- have found that students who live on campus and are involved in school activities are more likely to graduate. Perhaps the underlying connection between campus involvement and graduation rates is that students who are more actively a part of their college community are more aware of the resources, such as those listed below, that their college has to offer. - Academic assistance: College faculty and administration can provide academic support, while college writing centers and academic tutors can help you develop specific academic skills. Professors all have office hours, and yo...
