7 Essential Sites for College Students

1. Rate My Professors
Rate My Professors is my saviour! The title of the site is pretty self-explanatory- it’s a website where students rate and review their professors. By browsing this website, you can find out which professors you should sign up for and which professors you should avoid! You can discover what classes are easy A’s (hey, nothing wrong with that) and what classes provide you with a worthwhile challenge.

Of course, you can keep in touch with your new friends and also make new friends through this utility.

4. Facebook

It’s a great way to not only stay in touch with your loved ones you’ve left behind, but also to make new friends and keep quick contact with your new friends.

6. Campus Food
We’ve all been there- you’re sitting in your dorm, working on a paper and your tummy begins to talk to you. You realize you’re hungry, so you head to your mini-fridge only to discover that it’s empty!! Oh the horror, I knowww. There is GOOD NEWS, however. You can visit Campus Food to order food online immediately. There’s a wide variety for your selection, so I’m sure you’ll find something that’ll suit you.

7. Hulu
Missed an episode of your favorite TV show because you had a group meeting for a project? Don’t you fret, little one- you can catch up on episodes of a lot of TV shows at Hulu. Hulu is a “free online video services that offers hit TV shows.” As a college student, you may not be able to sit in your room and watch your favorite show when it airs and that is when this site comes into play. Whenever I miss an episode of The Office, that’s where I turn to (although I could watch The Office on their homepage :P).
