For thousands of students at the 老司机福利网, COVID-19 means social distancing, and social distancing means distance learning. Fortunately, USA's Center for Academic Excellence has years of experience in helping students learn from home.

- Plan for success. Balance your personal obligations 鈥 school, work and family 鈥 and organize your responsibilities. Make studying one of your priorities. Know the requirements and deadlines for each course you take. Have a backup plan for computer and Internet problems.
- Set a schedule. Without the structure of a traditional academic calendar, it can be difficult to stick to certain subjects at certain times. Assign yourself work and block out a weekly program.
- Stay in touch. Communicate with your instructors, and reach out to classmates for help. Use email, Zoom and video chat as a substitute for in-person meetings.
- Don鈥檛 procrastinate. The longer you wait to get started, the harder it will be to finish an assignment. We all know that feeling.
- Explore campus resources. The offers online tutoring, and academic advisors are ready to assist students who need guidance.
