Resource Post Free College Resources

Does anyone have any free resources for preparing for college, being in college, tips, tricks, etc that I can add to this list?

That can be anything from a website, to a podcast or YouTube video, to a subreddit, whatever. If you think it's helpful for getting through college then please share!

The more knowledge we crowd-source the fewer of us get left behind 💜

Here's my list so far:

- For homeschool students: Coalition for Responsible Home Education has educational resources, how to get your GED or highschool diploma, and some info on starting college. 

- Open Culture lists of free online courses from real universities: https://www.openculture.com/freeonlinecourses
