Spring brings kick-off to college for high school juniors!

By General Education Advice

Spring is approaching.  For most, this is great news.

For parents of Connecticut juniors who have been urging their children to “start looking at colleges” and begin SAT (or ACT) prep, the time is NOW.  I am fully aware of the battles that parents have to make – and choose – with their teens. But this is one worth the energy.

When I conduct our college counseling sessions with parents, every parent and student who had both the SATs and the college process under control during junior year felt happy that they started early.  And every parent – and student – who comes to me in the fall of senior year for college counseling feels panicked and pressured regarding their late start.

Start now!
