As an 11th or 12th grader, what should you be doing this fall to set yourself up for college admissions success?  During our webinar, Kimberly Hewitt, director of Frontier Tutoring's college counseling practice, walked through the following fall semester priorities for juniors and seniors:

 

• Identify and achieve your target SAT/ACT score before application deadlines. Develop your SAT/ACT testing strategy and learn whether test-optional policies affect you. (And for juniors, determine whether you should prepare for the PSAT this fall to potentially qualify for National Merit recognition and scholarships.)
  
  
• Create and finalize your college list, which drives all of your academic, testing, and application priorities
  
  
• For seniors, finalize essays and applications
  
  
• Identify financial aid and scholarships
  
  
• Maximize your GPA
  
  
• Optimize your extracurriculars to discover your interests and develop your college admissions profile
