The Best Youtube Channels for College Students

Many of us spend hours on YouTube watching  beauty gurus, storytimers, or even vloggers. If anyone has ever wondered how I procrastinate, this is it. But YouTube doesn't only have to be a place where we spend our time watching someone put on 100 layers of whatever. YouTube can also be place where we learn physics or philosophy. I have compiled a list of 6 YouTube channels I believe are of great help to college students.


The Best Youtube Channels for College Student. Crash Course will help you understand the many courses you'll be taking in college. They've made various videos on World History, Biology, Literature, Ecology, Chemistry, Psychology, and US History and more.

Each video is about 10 mins to keep viewers awake because it is no secret that our attention span isn't the greatest. Definitely check them out if you need to review for a test or extra help in those classes.
