SEVENTEEN: COLLEGE GOALS – An Insider’s Guide to Finding and Getting Into A School You’ll Love
Do you have a high schooler and they are at a standstill wondering about all the steps to get into college?
As parents, we know there is a lot to think about – from where they might want to go, to scoring solid test scores, to getting glowing recommendations, to completing their applications, to writing a killer essay, you get the idea.
It’s a lot so I can so totally see why it’s overwhelming for 10th graders.
Where the heck do they begin, where do you has a parent begin?
As a parent of a 9th grader, I am already thinking about the entire college process. Yes, I am!!
This is why I am a big fan of Seventeen’s College Goals for high schoolers who are in need of a how-to guide to begin.
5 Reasons why Seventeen’s College Goals is great for your high schooler to begin their college search!!
1. The book offers a step-by-step process that is not overwhelming for a high schooler to follow.
2. It includes practical cheat sheets to keep track of all the steps in the application process like “To Do” lists by school year.
3. Helpful prompts that help students self-reflect. It’s hard as a parent to help your child write their college essay. Let’s be honest, your child is not likely to think your self-reflection prompts are helpful. I don’t know about you but I don’t even remember my college essay and even if I did, the world of college essays has changed dramatically. So the self-reflection prompt is a great way for them to start the thinking process for their application.
4. Handy life hacks that provide tips on studying for the PSAT and SAT, their college choices and more.
5. Inspiring quotes from celebs and leaders – this is an extra bonus in my opinion. I know that my daughter likes to quote from celebs (we will work on her quoting world-famous leaders).
