Abstract

The purpose of this study is to test the effects of time management on college student’s wellbeing. Clients who participated in this study answered a twenty seven question survey where no

manage their time and how it affects their well-being. Although college students spent time on

school work they still find the time to balance sleep, work, and social interactions which seems

to facilitate a sense of well-being.
