[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Now that mine are done - one in college, another heading to her ED college in the Fall - wanted to check in to see how y'all are doing.
Lots and lots of great information on this site.  
Is your DC planning visits, getting a feel for the basics like urban/rural/large/small, researching majors, deciding where/how to demonstrate interest, scheduling AO interviews if offered or finding out when those open, prepping for SAT/ACT, [b]asking teachers for LOR's,[/b] thinking about main essay and supplemental essay ideas, creating a resume, researching costs, getting a sense of where/what their admissions chances are etc etc
I wish you all the best and I know there are many on this site that feel the same![/quote]

Are they supposed to be asking for LOR's now (spring of junior year?)

My son knows of 4 schools he wants to apply to, only two require LORs--and both require two LORs.   Purdue (engineering) and Colorado School of Mines.

He has 3 teachers he is considering asking.   Does he just ask for a "generic" LOR that can be copied for multiple applications?

Hmmm. Our DCs were told that they needed one STEM, one humanities LOR, regardless of what they planned to study in college.[/quote]
