Students Welcome!

• How has the admissions process changed since you were a student?
• What courses should your child be taking now to prepare for a competitive college?
• What do admissions offices consider besides academics?
• How should your child prepare for the new SAT and ACT? How important are these scores?
• How do you help your child narrow down the list and choose the "best fit" colleges? What about "safety" schools?
• How have population trends impacted the admissions standards?
• How has the financial aid process changed in recent years?
