While this may be true, many college students are also always running short on something else: time. 1 Here are a few things to consider:Manage your academic time. 2 Consequently, your academic work should always come first when it comes to arranging your time in order of importance. When looking at your schedule for the week, figure out what your academic commitments look like. What time do you have classes? How much homework do you have to do? What assignments are due? When do you have major exams or quizzes? Manage your personal time. It's an unrealistic expectation to think that you can study, go to class. and work all day, every day. 3 Make sure to allow yourself time to go to something fun in the yard, attend a meeting for your favorite club, and just hang out for an hour or so at night with friends over dinner. Doing things that make your personal time more enjoyable—and not totally focused on school—can actually improve your productivity when working on projects later.Keep your health in mind. When people's schedules are tight, one of the first things to go is sleep. While it may be common among college students, a lack of sleep is more hurtful than you might think. It can throw everything into disorder: your mental health, your physical health, your stress level, and, of course, your schedule. 4 Use your technology. Nothing helps a college student stay organized more than a good calendar! Some students use the calendars on their phones; others use things like Google Calendar, others still use the classic paper-calendar model. 5 Just change and try again.

Try your best to keep a routine on a regular basis.
