SAT / PSAT PREP

Many students and parents have requested information on the best way to help their children prepare for the College Board tests (PSAT / SAT). There are two sites our Caravel Academy Guidance recommends. One site is free and is recommended by the College Board. Khan Academy, through the College Board offers PSAT and SAT prep. Their own research states that for every five+ hours spent practicing in Khan Academy will raise your score by 70-100 points.  Here is the link: https://www.khanacademy.org/sat

The second site is UWorld College Prep. This site has a fee but is very reasonable. The packages range from $29 for 30 days to $99 for a year. Here is a link to their site. https://collegeprep.uworld.com/sat/

A third site is The Tutoring Center in Fox Run Shopping Center. They offer FREE practice tests. Visit their site at https://bear.tutoringcenter.com/

The Coca-Cola Scholars Foundation is committed to aiding as many students as we can. However, due to the large number of applications and our limited resources, we are able to award only a small percentage of students scholarships. To aid in the quest for financial aid, we’re happy to share the following list of scholarship resources.

Mike Fulk, Private College Counselor:

I've had the pleasure of assisting families with the college admissions process for over fifteen years. Whether it's been as a traditional counselor, higher education professional, or private college counselor, my goal has always been to help families navigate what has become an increasingly complicated process and help them find the right fit. My services include: college search, major, application, essay review, and financial aid. Sessions are tailored to the needs of the student and last approximately an hour and fifteen minutes. There is no long-term commitment or minimum number of sessions to schedule.  Please direct all inquiries and schedule requests to: firststatecc@gmail.com. Looking forward to partnering with your family!
