3,500 colleges. 1.7 million applicants. One very important you.
There is no one else like you. You have dreams and hopes that no
one else can completely understand. That
is why you are the best person to take the lead on the college search
process—Not your parents, your counselor or your
closest friends.
Why take a student-driven approach?
- The more you know about the colleges to which you are applying,
the better focused your applications and essays will be.
- You’ll be prepared to ask insightful questions during information
sessions and college interviews.
- You are most likely to find the best match if you do your own research,
rather than relying solely on the opinions of others.
- By exploring specialized interests such as athletics, the arts
and academic support, you’ll gain
new perspectives on campus life.
Don’t panic—We’re here to
help. Educational Advocates is available with information and resources—and
to advise you in many ways:
- Expand your list of possibilities to include colleges that may
be new to you and have much to offer.
- Teach you how to research and evaluate colleges.
- Advise you about early-decision and early-action applications.
- Provide you with a step-by-step approach so you get the job done
well—and still have time for friends and extracurricular activities.
- Help you understand how to apply wisely and find colleges that
will be delighted to have you as part of their community.
The process is time-consuming
and often challenging—but well worth it when you find yourself
on a campus that fits.
