How should students who are majoring in acting go about balancing their school life with work life, school life, personal life, etc., since this is one of the more busy programs to balance?

I am a first-year college student this fall, and the process of college is scary, especially with my intended career. I'm scared I'm going to lose out on downtime and want to know what life is like for acting students.

For someone pursuing a career in finance, what are the biggest lessons you’ve learned about yourself and the industry that helped you decide which sector to work in—especially when factoring in personal work ethic, natural strengths, and the realities of being a Black man in corporate America? As well as how do you see the sustainability of finance careers evolving with the rise of AI?

Let's say a person has fallen behind in a few classes and tests are coming up/the due dates for assignments are drawing near, what would be the best way to go about the situation? It would not necessarily be an advanced learning and apprehension since it would be within a short amount of time but more so to the extent of passing and perhaps a little further if able. How might that person deal with catching up in an efficient way and what choices or alternatives should that person consider in order to reduce the possibility of the same occurrence happening again?

In a more simplistic statement, how does an individual deal with extensive procrastination?
