[quote=Anonymous]Multiple approaches you can take. 1) Suggest a college trip with a friend in May after IB testing is over. 2) Make sure you have access to his Naviance account, he may have already put things in there but is not comfortable talking about them with you at this point. 3) Use the summer to study for SAT/ACT and write a couple of essays. I disagree with waiting until the fall to kick-start things. With IB you want his visits to be targeted, which can only happen if you have a sense of what kind of school he wants. Urban, suburban, small liberal-arts, large land grant, east coast, west coast. My DD said she wanted a school bigger than her current HS in a city, not in the South. We visited other types once and that opinion remains unchanged. Good luck[/quote]
