1) Discover You
College is all about preparing you for the next step! Starting first with digging deep and discovering who you are, what you're drawn to, where your aptitudes and skills best shine, and what traits and values you have is an essential first step of your college admission process. Explore these activities, exercises, and aptitude/personality tests to help you learn more about you.
2) Determine Direction
College is your segue into next level academics or your future career. Take some time to consider what field of study you want to head in, and most importantly, what you will declare as your major on your apps.
3) Select Top Priorities
Each college offers a different experience. Consider what are your top priorities for your college life. Do you want small classes, to live in a big city, to be close or far from home, to have more hands on practice or more theoretical foundation? Explore and choose your top priorities here.
