| | | A new month usually brings with it an intention of starting fresh--a diet, a hobby, and in October, for those on the road to college...FAFSA!
Rather than dread the filing, perhaps we should have a fresh attitude toward that pesky document, and approach it with confidence.
|
| | There Will Be An Answer...Let It Be
|
| | As your student begins writing his/her college essay, it’s so tempting to sneak a peek. But then with that peek often comes the usual comment, perhaps some criticism, and even worse...judgment.
As Kim Lifton says in “Don’t Second Guess Your Student’s College Essay Ideas,” they know what to write about, so just listen to them. It may not be how you ordinarily handle this sort of thing, but we’re adopting a “new attitude” here. Know how to give constructive feedback...and then, let it be. |
| | What’s Up Ahead on The Road…
|
| | We know the drill...high school seniors are in the thick of college applications and essays. And juniors and sophs, in addition to what they are doing pertaining to college prep, are also hearing the seniors bemoan their plight in life. Not a fun position to be in, whichever year of high school you are in. How would you and your student like to learn how to avoid costly mistakes and minimize the confusion that can often accompany this process? Join us for a special three-week program where we will cover critical topics to ensure you achieve the results you and your student desire. For three consecutive Sundays, you will learn how to tackle applications, essays, and polish your college list.
