[quote=Anonymous]DC is a rising junior. We started doing college tours - mostly to look at types, because you can’t get as good a feel for a school when the students aren’t around. VA offers a wide variety of sizes, locations, urban/suburban/rural, public vs private, all within a couple hours of driving. It’s helped a lot as DC starts thinking about preferences. DC is also self-studying for the SAT in August (some friends are doing classes; DC is very self-disciplined so we are trying books and online resources first). And knocking out at least 30 service hours with volunteering - not so much college-related, but it will all be with one organization so it’s a line item for the common app, and it’s a graduation requirement, of course. Then non-college stuff like driving lessons that DC didn’t want to deal with during the school year, and some advanced art classes (personal interest).[/quote]
