    1. Take the Are You Ready course before the first day of classes
    2. Sign into Blackboard three to four weeks before the first day of classes and find the syllabus.
    3. Use the Hostos online bookstore and get books delivered before classes begin
    4. Read the syllabus for special requirements
    5. Make a calendar of important dates including assignment and paper due dates, quizzes, tests and exams for all of your courses.
    6. Send an email to your instructor and introduce yourself during the first week of class.
    7. Use Succeed@Hostos to schedule time to meet with your coach or advisor early in the semester. Meet with them again before registering for next semester.
