I agree that once you get an ACT score you will be in a better position to choose colleges that make sense. In the meantime:

–Have the “money talk” with your parents. Find out any financial constraints you will have on your college. Also see if they have any other limitations (ex. geographic or anything else) on where they want you to go to college.

–Think about what you want in a college – what size school do you like, any location preference (both geographic and rural/suburban/urban), do you want big time sports, do you want Greek Life, do you prefer religious or secular, anything else you care about (any EC you want to continue in college, any club sport you want to play etc.).

–Get your hands on some good college guide books (ex. Fiske, Princeton Review) and start reading. You can probably find the books in your HS guidance office or library.
