College and University Admissions
Students have 6 options for college admission.  MyCollegeCalendar highly recommends students use the Early Application process and schedule.

College and University Applications
Start the college application process.  The entire process will take much longer than you think.

Campus Visits
College and university campus visits are not optional for students.  You must tour campuses to experience their atmosphere and culture first-hand, observe the characteristics unique to each college and get a “feel” for each campus to see if you fit in before making a commitment on May 1 of your senior year.

Application Essays
Start early on your college applications and application essays.  This is a lengthy, involved process in which many colleges require multiple essays and supplemental forms.

Financial Aid
Students, and especially parents, should understand all aspects of financial aid process.

Admission Interviews
Be sure to schedule interviews with the colleges and universities you are going to apply to – it shows your genuine interest in that college (a bonus factor for you) and will allow you to get answers to questions you may have.

Majors
When thinking about a major, you should consider not only your interests but your skills, talents, and personality.  How will a particular major help you capitalize on your natural talents and interests? 

Parent Participation
As a parent, plan on attending college visits, college information nights, and financial aid seminars with your student. Get informed and help with important decisions.

SAT and ACT Testing
For free, valuable information on the SAT® and ACT®

Scholarships
Begin researching scholarships (if you haven’t already).  If you haven’t registered for free national scholarship search services, do it now.  Learn what scholarships and grants are offered by foundations, clubs, businesses, and organizations and receive e-mail reminders of when to apply.
