It’s that Time…

Themes: College, College Applications, Final

In lieu of a final this session, we’ll kick off the college search with a few applications to get you comfortable with the process. Fill out the OU and OSU applications to the best of your ability–we’ll look over them tomorrow and I’ll give you some feedback. Also, bring three other applications from universities of your choice.

In case I don’t say it enough in class:

Visit colleges this summer.

Get a group of your friends (and a parent or two) and hit the road. Integrate college visits into your vacations. Talk to people back from college for the summer. Talk to the people with the job you dream about. ((Honestly, there are many vocations out there that do not require a regular degree. Find someone successful and see how they got there.)) The College Visit is a rite of passage; dive in.

Last thing:

I know a number of you signed up for the Senior Visit Day at TU; if you didn’t, there is still time.
