March To-Dos

Keep a to-do list to stay on track this spring.

Seniors

Write thank you notes to the teachers and counselors who wrote recommendations on your behalf, informing them of your college decisions.
As your college decisions come in, make plans to attend accepted student events or online sessions to help you make a decision on where to matriculate.
Talk with current students to truly understand the campus culture.
If you are considering a gap year, make creating a plan a priority this month, and, if applying to a program, begin to submit applications.

Juniors

Continue researching the colleges on your list and make plans for campus visits this spring.
Be sure to add yourself to the mailing list on the college website for your colleges of interest. (You will automatically be added if you register for an admission event).
Work with your consultant to create a list of activities with descriptions that you will later use to complete your application.
Discuss with your consultants which two teachers you will ask to write college recommendations.

Sophomores

If you plan to work with a college consultant now is the time to interview and choose one.
Develop a standardized testing plan for the coming year and if you are a student with a disability and need testing accommodations, request them now. Be sure you have the appropriate documentation.

All Students

Finalize summer plans.
Discuss your course choices for next year with us. Challenge yourself appropriately while allowing time for activities, social life, family time, and sleep!
