Building Your College List (Research, Visits and Interviews) - During the summer it is a great time to finalize your list of fit schools to apply to. It is important to pick schools in each category.
* Reach - college standards exceed your scores
* Target - college standards comparable to your scores
* Safety/Likely - your scores exceed the college standards
Applications - Create an account on Common Application for the schools you are interested in. Try to have the majority done while you are on vacation. Also start applications for schools that are not on Common Application.
Essays - Work on your draft of the Common Application Essay/Personal Statement. Common Application Essay Prompts.
Test Preparation - SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and/or ACT
Community Service - Summer is also a great time to participate in community service. Please see the Volunteering Tab for ideas.
