Early Action and Early Decision Deadlines are Approaching!

This should not be news to those of you who are in the final throes of completing your EA or ED submission - deadlines are approaching!! Make sure all your ducks are in a row, your SAT or ACT score reports sent, your school forms submitted with pre-addressed envelopes and return address labels, your teacher recommendations all set. Most of all, make sure that your guidance counselor and recommenders know of the deadline, whether it is November 1, November 15, or December 1. And most of all, good luck!!

Did You Know?

Looking to apply Early Action (EA) or Early Decision (ED) to college this year? Many high school guidance counselors require students to provide their completed application two weeks prior to the deadline. This allows the guidance counselor enough time to complete the school forms and submit them in a timely manner. For the unprepared student this can be quite a shock. Suddenly that November 15 deadline becomes November 1. The best way to reduce your stress level is to ask your guidance office what they need and when they need it. Less surprise equals a smoother process for you and your guidance counselor.
