i found cc just before my d’s senior year. i’m very thankful to all the kind posters who are so helpful when I have questions. i’ll be on cc for a while as i still have two younger ones in school (middle and elementary schools). i do wish i would have been actively reading the cc board years earlier but everything worked out just fine.

jtandmamom,
i feel like some students have their plates full keeping up with school and activities. my d also had varsity sports. senior year is an especially busy year. my d only managed 1 college visit prior to start of senior year and 1 in the fall. other college visits were all pushed back until the spring of her senior year because of classes and sport schedules. given their full plates, it’s hard for the kids to have the time to spend on a message board, reading college guides, etc. As parents, if we can give them a hand by having the information available for them, it can be truly helpful.

IndianaKate,
LOL…more than once my family had to tell me to “put down the fiske guide.” i find it all very interesting. also nearby was peterson’s competitive colleges guide… :)
