Thrifty textbook shopping - Project Center in Kumbakonam
Buying textbooks hits your bank account hard at the beginning of the year. Don't even think about how little you'll get when you return them. Fortunately, your schedule usually tells you what books you'll need. (Pro tip: If you wait to purchase your books, you might luck out on the first day and your professor will say you don't need to buy it.)If you do have to buy textbooks, exhaust all options before shelling out campus bookstore prices. Check out the book section on Chegg. You can rent or buy physical copies or e-books of the book you need for a fraction of the cost you'd pay on campus. Just make sure it's the right edition of the book. You can also sell old textbooks on Chegg and it has free shipping.
Depending on what you're looking for, you might have luck on eBay if you search for "college textbooks." Amazon also offers textbooks for sale or rent -- it's a bit more specialized than eBay, and it's also easy to return books.
Other must-have college apps
These next few apps may not fit into one of the larger categories but can definitely help enhance the average college student experience.Skype
Whether you're braving college across state lines or taking classes at a community college, communicating with your family is important. Skype is a quick and easy way to feel like you're with your loved ones, even if you can't make it home very often. The app's group call feature is also helpful for study buddy sessions or planning group projects. You can use the video call app on Android, iOS or from your PC, unlike some other platform-specific video call apps.Maps
If you want to look a little more discrete whilst trying to figure out where the Science Building is, finding your school in Google Maps or Apple Maps' satellite mode can make a world of difference. It's often more detailed than traditional campus maps if you're wondering where you are on campus or searching for some type of identifying marker (roof colors, grassy areas, parking lots and so on).https://twitter.com/arudhrait
