Before you head to Madrid, consider starting a planner or online calendar to maintain your schedule and plan your upcoming semester.
Time management involves much more than putting your courses onto a calendar along with any extracurriculars, events or appointments. Once you know your class schedule, dive deep into your course syllabi and make notes of all your deadlines for assignments and exams. This way, you will notice when multiple assignments are due at the same time, and you can proactively schedule time to study. This is also a great opportunity to make to-do lists and keep yourself organized.
Once classes begin, find a study buddy. Case Western Reserve students truly support one another in and out of the classroom. Whether it is a peer in your class, a mentor or a tutor, we encourage you to seek support from another student.
