Juniors-Time to start the college admissions process

With the new year comes the time for high school juniors to begin the college admissions process if they haven’t already started. College may still seem a long way away but there is much that needs to be done to make sure that the student finds the right college for their needs. Students should be taking at least one and ideally two standardized tests before the end of the school year so that testing is not required in the senior year. The process of visiting colleges should also be started in the next few months.

For more detailed information about what needs to be done to find the right college check out our articles on the college admissions process. Here we have articles on Finding the Right College as well as What Colleges Want in choosing a freshman class. We also have articles on Financial Aid and Common Mistakes in Choosing a College. Here is also a detailed 4 year college admissions time line.

What ever you do, don’t wait to get started. Putting off the investigation of the best college for you only makes for a more difficult senior year and often leads to a poor result in the college chosen.
