Quick Reminder to High School Students

                               Summer Time is the Best Time! But while you are having fun, remember to use
                    your time effectively, after all after summer always comes school! Below is a to do list for
                    each grade level so you can be prepared to go to college!

• ACTION PLAN: HIGH SCHOOL FRESHMEN & SOPHOMORES

  Make the Most of Your Break

  • Start a summer reading list. Ask your teachers to recommend books.
  • Plan to visit college campuses to get a feel for your options. Start with colleges near you.
  • Finalize your summer plans.

  ACTION PLAN: HIGH SCHOOL JUNIORS

• Keep Up Your Momentum

  • Visit colleges. Take campus tours and, at colleges you're serious about, schedule interviews with admission officers. Be sure to bring your campus visit checklist.
  • Request applications from the colleges you're planning to apply to. Check important dates; some colleges have early dates or rolling admission. Consult the College Application Calendar and the Financial Aid Calendar for a basic idea of the applications timeline.
