College Application Guide

Your college application is an important step and helps you distinguish yourself from other applicants. The more organized and disciplined you are—and the more you know about admissions requirements and timing for the colleges you want to attend—the easier it will be to apply.

To get started, first narrow your choices. Make a list of priorities including academic programs, location, campus culture, cost, and size. Look for colleges that match your priorities. Then, do a bit of research. Learn the admissions requirements, deadlines, and application fees for these colleges.
