[quote=Anonymous]Craft a list of schools that your child can be excited about from top to bottom. As much as possible, try to avoid prestige shopping. There should be a real reason that the kid wants to go there rather than just it's reputation. Make them explain their list to you and the rationale for applying. An early rolling admit is awesome. Both of my DC had one and it made them feel much more secure knowing what the "worst case scenario" was. Take SAT/ACT fall of junior year and, again, in the spring. All essays completed (as much as possible) before school starts senior year. Be up front with what you can afford and your lines in the sand and have them apply accordingly. [/quote]
