Importance of Junior Year Grades.

 

Junior year grades are the most important grades for getting into college.  They show college admission officers how well you do in advanced, upper-level courses and indicate whether or not you’re capable of handling college-level courses in fall 2012. 

 

In addition, college financial aid officers and scholarship organizations use grades to determine merit-based financial aid awards.  Remember this:  The better your grades, the greater your scholarships and grant awards will be. 

 

Even if your grades haven’t been the best, now is the time to make improvements in your GPA; colleges like to see upward trends in grades.  If you’re serious about going to college, get serious this year.
