Are you living the college life but not the experience? College can be pretty boring if you don't know the right people and the right places. These are some questionably fun things that college students can do for FREE.

What Should You, The Broke College Student, Do This Weekend?

What is your favorite season?

What is your favorite animal?

What's your favorite food?

What is your favorite thing to do?

What is your favorite type of movie?

Which closest relates to your major?

Where is your favorite place to nap?

What is your favorite book?

Going to the pool can be a great stress reliever in your busy college life. Take some time to relax in the hot tub or cool off in the pool. You can even get away with saying swimming is a workout to get rid of that Freshman fifteen.

Go to the Pool

Don't have time for a social life between the job and the homework? Think again! Joining an RSO can give you insight, advice, and knowledge that few people have. That, and lifelong friendships. (By lifelong, I mean until next semester of course)

Join a Registered Student Organization

Yes, I know it's not as fun as the real thing. But admit it, we're all broke and you can't afford that new pair of shoes you want. So go to stores with your squad, complain endlessly about how you wish you had more money, and then mess around without getting kicked out.

Go Window Shopping

Everyone has a park or a nature walk within a few miles of them. They can be great places to relax, study, or just reflect on how you're surviving college. I promise the trees won't ask about grades or majors.

Be with Nature

Most colleges offer free entertainment for their students. Some it is lame, some of it is actually interesting. So if you're up for some laughs with some friends or want to take a break from studying, check out your local calendar to see what shows are going on. It's worth a try, nothing can disappoint you more than campus living.

Go to a Show

Do you want to be entertained but also informed? Campus presentations can do just that. I will admit, they can sometimes be boring, but you have to find the right one. Plus you'll gain experiences you've never had before. That's what college is all about? Right...?

Go to a Campus Presentation

You know what's better than a worldwide treasure hunt? Nothing. Competing with friends and hiking into unknown areas are a nature lovers dream. You have to make sure you know all the ins and outs, or else you're going to end up lost and wondering how you got to Canada. Go to geocaching.com to find out more.

Go Geocaching

Most colleges have rock walls or other fun gyms activities. Even though it's exercise, you're the type of person who would prefer to be out doing something instead of being cooped up inside. Try all the activities your gym has to offer, you're bound to find something you love.

Go Rock Climbing

You love to unleash your inner child and one of the best ways is going to a park. You can pretend that you're a kid again and have no responsibilities. Swing on that tire swing until you no longer remember that you're paper is due at midnight. I'm sure it will help.

Go to the Park

You're the type of person who prefers to stay inside, cuddled up, and watching videos. It's ok. We all understand. Take some you time, binge watch that show. The homework will still be there when you unplug. For now, the internet is your comfort.

Stay at Home and Watch YouTube
