[quote=Anonymous]^To add to above, w/500 students and a likely focus that is not on college admissions, you can already guess you will not get much help from the high school counselor for college stuff. So, welcome to the forum. Stick around over the next few years and learn about the process. At this point in time, all your kid needs to do is get good grades in courses that challenge her, and get involved in things that interest her. What you can do now is begin to understand the cost of different types of colleges, what your budget will be, whether your kids will be eligible for need-based aid and whether the aid would make it affordable or, alternatively, send you on a hunt for merit scholarships instead, a decidedly different direction for the college search.[/quote]
