I have just recently started college and I'm curious on how well skiing has fit in with studying/homework for other NSers.

Really depends on your major/how dedicated you are to school. I started out as a freshmen going to school two days a week and skiing pretty much 3-4 days a week. Now I'm getting ready to graduate and the real world is cock slapping me in the face.

Moral of the story: Freshman/Sophmore year are a breeze and you will be skiing a lot. Past that school becomes more of a priority.

Take winter quarter off. Stay involved in school but remember that not all your education comes from a class room

In my first two years I had a lot of morning classes so I just brought all my gear with me to school and just left from campus to ski.

Classes 9am-6pm on tue/thurs. Ski every other day. Library every night.

You gotta do what you gotta do.

It works amazing. Work hard at school then go shred when you want. If you put your priorities as skiing and school, you'll be fine. If, on the other hand, you decide to party and procrastinate all the time, you'll find yourself missing the best days because you're "too busy". School is the best time of your life to ski.
