Tips for Preparing for the College Selection Process

Dear Parents:

          Fall is well underway. The leaves are turning lovely colors of red and gold.  The temperatures are once again comfortable. Seniors are busy submitting applications to college for the Fall 2022 admission cycle. Feelings of anxiety are running high among this class of 2022.  

The articles in this newsletter address the process of selecting schools to apply to, and what is important to pay attention to when applying. Hopefully, this will help students in the class of 2023 and 2024. College Fit is far more important than the college rankings. Applying to 10-12 schools is far more reasonable, if students do their research about the schools. 

Enjoy the weather, football and all the great things that go with this time of year. Thank you for taking time out of your busy day to read my newsletter.

Sincerely,

Catherine Marrs, CEP
