[quote=Anonymous]It feels like the college journey started long ago and, of course, really ramped up in the past two years. She did ACT prep the summer before junior year, ACT in the winter of junior year, spring break college tours in junior year, then worked on Common App essay and portfolio prep in the summer, supplementals and portfolio video recordings in the Fall, and had every application submitted by Thanksgiving of senior year so she could relax over the holidays. It was a slog and there were some tense moments, for sure. Those supplementals were a killer for her--phew! But she made a spreadsheet, kept herself organized and on track, and asked for my credit card when it came time to submit. But...watching her eyes light up as she perused the website of her selected college, looked for classes she wanted to take, and started feeling the reality of going to college made it all worth it. She pictures herself there and is excited to go. I'm one proud Mama. [/quote]
