At this point, it\u2019s time to finish up any outstanding college prep actions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

1. Make sure that your teen submits their college applications.<\/strong> My son Sean plans on finishing his remaining applications by the end of this week so that he can enjoy his school break.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Complete the FAFSA.<\/strong> Although I think FAFSA is faulty (since the cost of living is not considered), your family needs to fill it out anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Start or continue applying for scholarships.<\/strong> I have shared many different scholarship resources over the last few months to help. Although applying for scholarships can be time-consuming, there is<\/strong> money out there!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I hope that the information that I have shared has been helpful. Most of all, I want your teens to attend the best colleges for them!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
