College applications are truly the biggest challenges between high school and the dream, but how do you battle through the essays, numerous pages of information, and time zone differences?
5. What you might think…
• Your grades suck and you just hope to get into some college
that isn’t too low in ranking.
• Or…you are an overachiever and you want to get into those Ivy
League schools or some big-name colleges
• Then just write essays to answer questions from each college
• Next, you send and hope for the best
• ..And you think you have to show you can pay your tuition
7. How are you going to choose?
• Big schools vs small schools?
• East Coast/West Coast/South/Mid-west?
• Religion?
• Race distribution?
• Family reasons?
• …

of students around the globe and in the US are
