W
hen applying to colleges, most stu- dents feel unprepared. Where do I
want to go? How many schools are too many? What about interviews? The list of questions extends forever and college planning seems daunting. Students and parents have differ- ent expectations and communication is not usually at the top of anyone’s priorities list. Following is a College Planning Guide that includes helpful tips for both parents and stu- dents. From communication to compiling a list of schools to planning visits to questions to ask, this guide simplifi es the process of choosing a school and helping to plan your teen’s future.
COMMUNICATION The fi rst roadblock that many families en- counter when college planning is lack of communication. Expectations differ greatly in the college planning process and lack of discussion leads to unnecessary stress. Initial conversations should cover cost, distance, and academics. If a school is not within your budget, scholarships and grants are available based on need and academics. If these are not an option, consider loans, especially if your teen plans on going to a school beyond your budget. If none of these are possible, make sure he or she knows which schools are fi - nancially within your family’s means before applying to alleviate potential disappoint- ment later.
