[quote=Anonymous]If they have a challenging load in the Fall, and will have finished at least Algebra 2 this year, do SAT/ACT prep in the summer and take the test at the end of summer (there's an SAT on Aug 28). Plan for time to do some low-key visits to different types of colleges -- big, small, urban, rural. Some kids will come away with a clear type preference and if so that's really helpful in narrowing the search. Don't fixate on any specific schools at this point. Run the numbers and get clear on what your budget is and how much debt, if any, you are willing to take on. Educate yourself about need vs merit aid.[/quote]
