Students should gravitate towards the personalized reviews that are left on sites like Niche about certain schools which offer valuable insight about various schools you may be considering.
Remember to include Likely, Target, and Reach Schools on your list of colleges to consider. This would also include schools with a variety of sizes, settings, and locations to help you find your right fit school for you. If you already have a major in mind, make sure these schools have the programs for which you are looking.
Most schools have virtual tour options, but other schools have in-person options for prospective students. Plus, more options for schools become available in the fall and spring for on-site visits. Students should visit each college's webpage to sign up for various events - both on-site and online.
Colleges have different admission timelines for applying, scholarships, financial aid, special programs, and more. As a result, students should pay special attention and have a systematic way of keeping tabs on important dates/deadlines during the college application season.
It may seem early but you can find essay prompts on Common App's website - and you will be glad you did when things get bust again in the fall!
Make a list of jobs you've had, community service you've performed, sports you've played, clubs you've joined, and any other activities or achievements you can think of since you became a freshman in high school.
Some schools require letters of recommendation from counselors, teachers, coaches, or others that know you well. It is never too early to ask for references...
After August 1, students will be able to start their Common Application and apply to the schools on their list.
