My best advice for anyone starting college: Set yourself some targets of what to get done each day/week and stick to it. College learning tends to lend itself to a lot of self-study time, meaning it can be even easier to leave things till later and get yourself in a difficult spot with workload.

Definitely get the work done before you relax too. It's so much easier to make yourself get through your workload when you aren't delving into a much more "fun" activity first. I'd start playing a game thinking "I'll do that paper later", and before I knew it.. I hadn't done the paper that night xD I learned to get the work done before I chilled when I could help it. It was much easier to not get distracted that way.
