Summer Checklist for Seniors:
Brainstorm and begin writing your college essay: Draft #1 is due on Day 1 of English 12.
Ask 1-2 teachers for recommendation letters: Ask in person, then follow up with a written request. Be sure to provide plenty of time, communicate deadlines clearly, and share a detailed activity résumé.
Start your activity list: Begin with your main sport, then add up to nine additional activities (jobs, volunteering, leadership roles, clubs, etc.).
Explore colleges and build your list: Share your list with Liz C. so she can invite those schools' admissions reps to visit KMS this fall.
Register for the SAT: KMS will offer a School Day SAT in early October. For other dates register at www.collegeboard.org.
Create your Common App account: Start adding colleges.
