TIP OF THE WEEK - August 10, 2009

Creating Competition For A Student:

We recommend that students apply to upwards of six colleges. The reason is that this
helps create competition for the student. For a Student to create the maximum amount of competition between schools, they should include the following types of schools in the list of colleges that they wish to attend:

1. An in-state public school
2. A private college that is known to give good award offers
3. A college in the same athletic conference
4. A comparable college that is out of the student’s region of residency
(colleges encourage cultural diversity in their enrollments)

Hope you found our "Tip of the Week" to be informative and helpful.

Until next week...
