Apps Helps College Students Adapt to Campus Life - Karin Caifa, CNN's Clicked In

From buying textbooks to decking out a dorm room, there are plenty of apps to keep campus life organized. There are new tools to help first-time freshmen and even grad students. Courseloads, papers, research and after-class activities can add up to a busy day. An app like "in class" for iPhone and iPad can help keep track of your day. Students can take notes, share notes, line up their schedule and set alarms for important deadlines. Textbooks can take a huge bite out of a college student's budget. The "bookbyte" app for apple and android aims to take a bite out of some of those costs. Students can buy, rent and sell used textbooks on the go, and scan books to find out how much they're worth.
