Happy Holidays Class of 2015!
By now I am hoping you are out of your Thanksgiving food comas and are in the full swing of preparing for finals. While this time can be stressful I encourage you to also be mindful of taking study breaks and getting enough rest. To help you celebrate the holiday season I have included some great holiday events going on in San Antonio that I encourage you to take advantage of if you can find the time. more>>

Exam period is coming, and professors of upper-division classes write some tough exams! Therefore, it is in your best interest to start preparing now. First, make a list of all your remaining assignments and exams. Second, break each task into manageable steps. Third, estimate how many hours it will take you to accomplish each step for each item on your list. Fourth, put the items on a calendar with your time estimates written next to them. Now you can see how many hours of work are needed on the days leading up to each due date, so you can plan accordingly. For more specific study skills, please visit Counseling Services’ self-help page.
