We're talking about organizational and productivity tools to keep you on track and on schedule! Some may prefer a physical planner, but, with a phone at your finger tips, why not use it?
We put together a list of apps that may come in handy this semester!

This app is free with the creation of a Gmail account (which is also free!). This calendar app is thorough without being overwhelming. You can color code your classes, input all of your homework and exam dates with ease and set reminders to ensure you never miss a responsibility.
Reminders
This app is pre-installed for iPhone users. Within this app, you can create multiple to-do lists to make sure you stay on top of your tasks.

When you’ve completed an item, you can check it off and easily see what’s next on the list. This app will send you notifications about your daily tasks to help you stay on track!
Goodnotes
Goodnotes has three plan options. There is a free account which allows you to set up three notebooks, allows you to use the handwriting ar note-taking feature, audio recordings, and has access to interactive exam practice materials. The next step up is a $9.99 yearly account that comes with unlimited notebooks, stickers, the ability to export documents and more. Lastly the $29.99 account allows for all of these options but does not work for Android, Windows, or Web users.
Notion
Notion allows you to take effecient notes, organize your tasks, track your progress on projects, and write better. The app is highly customizable and helps you keep your workspace clean and organized. You won't sweat the small details when you have notes to help you remember them!

Productive
Productive is a free, habit-tracker app designed to help you set personal goals, build healthy habits, and create momentum in your life!
Regardless of the app(s) you choose, it’s important to have some sort of organizational plan in place. Once you identify what works best for you, life as a college student will be much easier!
