Chemistry

Hi Chemistry Scholars!

You've completed 25% of the spring semester! That’s a big deal! This is a great time to reflect on your routines, peak at those grades, tweak your study habits, and start thinking ahead to summer opportunities. A little planning now can open big doors later! A few quick tips to keep you moving forward:

  • Plan your week with purpose: Choose one priority for each class and break it into small, doable steps.
  • Use your resources early: Tutoring, office hours, CAST academic coaching, and study groups can make a big difference even after one visit.
  • Take care of yourself: Be your own Valentine! Rest, recharge, and make space for what brings you joy.
  • Start summer planning: Look into internships, jobs, research, and REUs now so you don’t miss deadlines. Many REU applications close in February and March. Need help? Meet with your CAS Career Coach!
Keep going and know I’m here to support you every step of the way!
