Junior To-Do List

Fall

  • Check your status towards meeting graduation, Bright Futures, and state university admission requirements on www.FACTS.org (this activity will be done in class).
  • Meet with your guidance counselor to discuss your academic status and college options that fit best.
  • Get organized with a calendar or spreadsheet to write down important test dates and application deadlines. Create folders for each school you are interested in and file any information you may receive.
  • Attend college admission representative presentations.
  • Narrow your list of potential schools and contact them for an information packet.
  • Start your scholarship and financial aid search. Set up or update your profiles on scholarship search websites so you can receive personalized scholarship information.
  • Find out Open House dates and times for the colleges and career schools you are considering.
  • If you need community service hours select a project and get the necessary approval.
  • Register for SAT/ACT. Take the earliest test available, which will allow you time to retake. Look into test preparation strategies and resources.
  • Attend at least one college fair. Dress up a bit (no jeans or shorts) and bring a tote bag to collect brochures and other handouts.

Spring

  • Take the SAT and/or ACT
  • Research scholarship and financial aid directories and begin the application process.
  • Create a resume. If portfolios, audition tapes, or essays are required for college or scholarship applications, start working on those now.
  • Plan visits to college and university campuses. Make appointments, especially if visiting during the summer.
  • Consider a volunteer job in your desired field of study. This can add a boost to your college applications.
  • Keep your college search organized! Start a file box with at least two sections: one for information you receive from colleges and another for materials you will be sending out to them, such as reference letters, essays, and test scores.

Sophomore To-Do List

  • Schedule a meeting with your guidance counselor.
  • Go to www.FACTS.org to use the site’s ePEP & Evaluations, which can help you plan and monitor your progress toward future goals.
  • If you plan to attend college, talk to your counselor about taking Honors classes, AP classes, or Dual Enrollment classes.
  • Start smart with your grades. High school can be overwhelming at first, but it’s much easier to maintain a good GPA than it is to pull one up from the trenches.
  • If you have trouble finding a summer job, spend time volunteering or working on a special project that will enhance your resume.
