Cre­at­ing spring break plans early saves money and less has­sle than wait­ing to the last minute. This gives you plenty of time to de­cide whether to visit fam­ily or plan a trip with friends. The ear­lier you de­cide, the cheaper plan tick­ets, rental cars, and ho­tels are.

Ad­di­tion­ally, if you plan to va­ca­tion with friends, you and your group will want time to de­cide where to go to. Gather to­gether to cre­ate a bud­get and record what each of you and your friends want to do while on break. Un­der­stand­ing one an­other is very rel­e­vant and rush­ing to the last minute to find a va­ca­tion place might be very frus­trat­ing.

If you haven’t planned on what to do for your spring break, ask up­per­class­men about what they’ve done in pre­vi­ous years, which ad­ven­tures have been bud­get-friendly and what they plan­ning on do­ing cur­rently and next year.

Up­per­class­men have an abun­dance of spring break ex­pe­ri­ence to share with you and would be will­ing to give you ad­vice. If you’re close to some of them, than you may be able to join their group for a spring break trip.

No mat­ter what you end up do­ing for spring break, there is go­ing to be ex­tra ex­pen­di­tures. Be­fore you travel out­side of the coun­try, do plenty of re­search to find the best deal. Even ex­pan­sive road trips can get heavy on your pock­ets as food and gas will add up faster than you think.

 Keep your trav­el­ing group kind of small. Plan­ning for large groups of friends will get ex­po­nen­tially more harder as each per­son has their own va­ca­tion choices. Spend­ing your spring break with a small group of friends also lets you ex­pand your bond with your group.

“Alot of col­lege stu­dents pre­fer to go to a place closer to the equa­tor over spring break.” Ash­ley Smith, a se­nior at Maryville says.
