Long considered the premier extracurricular organization for college students, the educational organization, founded in 1921, can have both a resume-building and financial impact on your child’s future. Read more about it here. |

| | What else, besides National Honor Society can have “both a resume-building and financial impact on your child’s future?” Internships!
And surprise, they’re not just for college students.
A high schooler who adds a respectable internship to his/her college application demonstrates initiative. In some cases, an internship can lead to even more opportunities, such as an expanded internship in college or even a post-college job offer. And sometimes, they even pay!

| | #CompareCollegeOffers
We are busily gathering data from all the wonderful students who have shared their college offers with us.
Everyone wants to know if they’re being treated fairly, right? And we especially want to know that about our colleges.
Our Compare College Offers tool helps those students compare (anonymously) their offers with others who have similar profiles at the same school.
Sharing that data helps students who will follow them, so they can pat themselves on the back for paying it forward. And, we don’t mean to sound mushy (yes we do), but that’s a good feeling to have! Click on the tool right here, to get started. |
