15 Things Every College Student Should Do Before Graduation

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at SAU chapter.

Most of us are still trying to decide if graduating is making us feel a little uneasy or extremely happy, yet the big day is right around the corner. College is an experience that will bring lifelong memories and friends. From the excruciatingly early 8a.m. classes, to some of the most enjoyable parties of your life. Make sure you live up your last semester with some of the most interesting and awesome people you will meet in your life. Here are some of the ways you can make that happen! 

 

Take Lots of Pictures!

 

Take advantage of the drink specials at the local bars around your school, you may not always have the opportunity.

Use the library, you’ll never have access to this many free books again!

 

Learn how to write a resume. College life is fun, but it’s important to think about the future. 

Learn how to make one good meal, because the cafeteria won’t always be an option. 

Have an all-nighter with your roomies, because true adulthood won’t always allow the time for sleepovers.

Participate in as many schools activities as possible. These are the experiences you’ll remember for the rest of your life.

Day drinking is a must in college, because once you get into the real world, this party style will start to diminish. Enjoy drinking a large class of (Insert favorite drink) in the sweet sunshine!

 

 

Meet at least one new person before you graduate!

 

Pick up and read one of your textbooks, you may actually learn a thing or two!

Take advantage of the campus. Walk around and find new places you’ve never seen before (or visit your old favorites).

 

 

Travel, travel, travel!

Get the most out of your school ID! Use those student discounts at movies, restaurants, games, etc.

Try something out of your comfort zone!

Last but not least, HAVE FUN! College goes by so fast and the last thing you want is to dwell on the things you didn’t do when you had the chance.
