Determining which test(s) to take when choosing a college.
The advantages of taking both ACT and SAT tests.
Motivating students to take responsibility in preparing for college.
Why some students should consider taking an intentional "gap" year between high school and college.
With their parents' help, students should examine themselves (passions, strengths, personality) to discover which college may be a best fit for them.
Various kinds of financial aid, including need-based and merit-based.
Why students should diversify their college options.
