Graduation Planner was extremely helpful when it came to figuring out which classes I needed to take and when. I've managed to plan out the next two years of college and plan to do the rest soon. This really helped me understand what I needed to do and have a better understanding of the next four years. APAS was another tool that I found very useful. I had heard about it before, but I had no idea what it was exactly. Now that I know what it is, I can see which courses I have taken that met certain requirements in order to graduate. Learning how to write a professional email was also very helpful. As I had stated before, I didn't know how to write a professional email before coming to UMD, learning how I communicate with my professors so they can clearly understand what I need. These tools have been very useful to me in my first semester here at
