Planning for college requires student and parents to stay informed about academic preparation in high school, taking college tests, choosing, applying and paying for college, and career exploration. There are many good websites to help you plan year by year for college. Here are just a few:
- The U.S. Department of Education has a lot of great information about planning your future including planning for college.
http://www.studentaid.ed.gov/students/attachments/siteresources/collprep.pdf - The ACT website has a good section titled "Helping Your Teen Plan For College" which includes checklists for 9th-12th grades.
http://www.act.org/path/parent/college/index.html - The College Board website, which sponsors the SAT Test, has specific college preparation lists for each year of high school.
