5 Things Every College Girl Should Do Before Graduating

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

1. Study Abroad

Spending a semester or even just a few summer weeks studying in another country may not fit your budget, but trust me the experience, will be worth it! You’ll learn about different cultures, language, traditions, and come back home anxious and eager to book your next flight to visit another country.

2. Join A Club

It may not always be easy to manage being a part of a student organization between schoolwork, an internship, or maybe even a job, but being involved on campus is a good way to relief stress. Especially being a part of something that really interests you! Not only will you enjoy being part of a club, but you’ll also make new friends that enjoy the same things you do. It’s a great way to network and make connections for your future.

3. Attend School Events    

As a college student, it’s always exciting to have school spirit. Spend a Saturday night at a game with your friends and show support for your school!

4. Take On An Internship

Just like joining a club, taking on an internship may be time consuming but it’ll be another great asset to add to your resume. Not only is it a great learning experience, but you will also be able to get hands on experience in your career field. Don’t wait on it! Find an internship you’re interested in and find out how to apply!

5. Reward Yourself

College can be very stressful especially during finals week. Reward yourself for your great effort and go on a road trip. Traveling is always more fun with friends. Attend concerts, festivals, or visit the newest nightclub. They’ll soon all be memories so have fun!
