[quote=Anonymous]You don’t need a private college counselor. Just get some books about the process from the library and read them. Go to your school’s college info nights. Keep in mind that activities only matter for a small segment of the colleges out there (the very selective ones). There are many schools where they don’t matter at all to admissions (such as large state schools). There are a TON of colleges out there and you can get a good education at virtually all of them, so think about cost, distance, and size. Apply to a range of schools, not just highly selective ones. Apply early if there’s a definite first choice and your family can afford it—admissions are easier early decision.[/quote]
