SPEND TIME THIS YEAR VIRTUALLY VISITING COLLEGE CAMPUSES

SPEND TIME THIS YEAR VIRTUALLY VISITING COLLEGE CAMPUSES

Local schools work just fine to give you an idea of what large, medium, and small campuses feel like, when you drive through. Consider looking at a  private college and a public school so you can compare the atmosphere and environment. 
 
Participate in Fall virtual college fairs!  See the College & Career Center main page for a list of spring fairs and events!  
 
Go online to check out each campus' academic requirements on their admissions websites and make sure you take a look at any majors you might be interested in. 
 
Listen to a campus admissions session and take a virtual campus walking tour. These are great ways to hear what the school is focused on teaching and you get a chance to visit the important buildings - rec. center, dorms, commons, and unique campus features.
 
Sign up to participate in virtual college rep presentations when you learn about them. 
 
Build your "Colleges I'm Thinking About List" in Naviance. This list should grow over your junior year and should contain a lot of possible options.  You will refine this list when you head into Senior Year. 
 
ALL YEAR LONG....
Find something interesting to do with your spare time.  Join a club, participate in a sport or music group, get a job!   Explore a passion you have!
