Winter Break for College Students

Exams are over! You want to leave school completely behind you. Relax, play with your pets, sleep in...but after a few days, consider activities that will help you in the long run (guaranteed)

• Writing a thank you letter to a college professor who was particularly supportive or inspiring
• Asking a professor if he/she is willing to write an academic letter of recommendation over the break
• Selecting items of particular achievement to add to a professional portfolio
• Updating your resume/cover letter/Linkedin profile to reflect new skills or training
• Reviewing your graduating plan - are you on track to graduate?
• Reflecting on your performance to identify areas of desired or needed improvement
• Thinking ahead to the summer - internship applications? Taking summer courses?
• Thanking your parents (and friends/other family members) for emotionally and financially supporting your academic Goals!

Have a wonderful winter break! Weil College Advising, LLCinfo@weilcollegeadvising.com
