Seniors…it's time to start the admissions process!
October 23, 2008
College may still seem far off, but admission deadlines will
start hitting this fall. Follow these steps to stay on track:
Contact your top college choices NOW and ask about deadlines and
the process for applying for admission, college-based scholarships
and financial aid.
Apply to your top 3-4 colleges before the deadline. Along with your
application, the colleges will require your high school transcript,
class rank, GPA and ACT/SAT score. They may also request a list of
your extracurricular activities, letters of recommendation, an
essay and an interview.
Update your Activities Resume. Because extracurricular activities
are an important part of the admissions application, keep them
up-to-date by using the Activities Resume at EducationQuest.org. In
many cases, you can simply print your resume and include it with
the application.
Contact your admissions representative periodically to stay
informed about deadlines and campus activities.
