Hi Class of 2022 and those who love them,
All of us in Student Services are hoping you are staying healthy and safe. We would like to cordially invite you to join us for the Junior College Kick-Off.
When: Thursday January 21, 2021
What time: 6:00 – 8:00 pm
Where: Online! We will send the link to join us the day of the event.
Who: 2022 Students and Parents (yes, we want you to attend together!)
What: A team of counselors will walk families through the college application process, things to do now, things to think about for later, and answer questions you may have for the good of the group.
Please save the space on your calendar and be ready to absorb all the information we will be sharing. If you are unable to join, we plan to record the session and share it afterward.
In the meantime, if you’re looking to get started on researching colleges, we’d love to suggest a few resources our families have found helpful over the years.
One recommendation is the Fiske Guide - http://www.fiskeguide.com/. It’s on Amazon, or certainly most bookstores (shop local if you can!). You could also probably find it used if you get an older version (not THAT much changes from year to year) The Fiske Guide is our favorite “College Search 101 book”. It gives a 2-3 page summary of each college/university including things like what majors are popular, what the social life is like, what other schools are similar to it, etc. It is a great start to researching schools!
Other books, if you’re interested, but not meant to overwhelm families by any means!
College Blogs we recommend:
We look forward to seeing you next Thursday!
