I cant wake up for class

It's been 3 weeks of school so far and 3 times already i missed my class because i didnt wake up. I get my 6-8 hours of sleep at night and I literally have my ipod and phone next to me with both alarms set as well as an alarm clock on my desk. I dont even hear the alarm go off in the morning and when i do wake up I'm already too late for my morning class. I'm an extremely heavy sleeper. If anyone has advice please help me!

your late to your classes. I miss the whole thing and dont know what the assignments are

@quackoutloud thats a good point i guess. I do sleep at 3 in the morning on the weekends and wake up at 12 in the afternoon or later
@trumanB I wish i went to college at my home, my parents did that all the time for me in high school hahah

Keep your blinds open and the morning light (even when the sun isn't out yet) will help wake you gently.

I find iPhone alarms clock to not be very helpful. I have my alarm clock on the other side of my bed, a bit loud, so I have to physically get up and move to turn it off. Personally, I wake up better if the alarm is set to the radio and not the BEEP BEEP BEEP buzzer function.

Vibrate a bell or your neighbor so they break your windows

I literally did this all the time last semester, but my problem was barely getting 4 hours of sleep everyday.
All I can say is even on weekends, try and make it a habit of waking up early so your body gets used to it, and eventually, you will be able to wake up naturally or hear the alarm in the morning.

Record a really annoying song at max volume on a computer using your phone, then set multiple alarms 1min after each one using that recorded song

Ipod/Iphone alarms are weak. Set up an alarm on your TV. I set my TV alarm at 57 volume...if you don't wake up from that, you're dead.

I sleep 4 hours a day.

Just sleep during the afternoon and stay up all night.
