4 Strategies for a Smarter College Search

The college search continues to become more complex, making it harder for families to identify the right-fit schools. Challenges include:

• Admission trends and how colleges admit students

• ACT/SAT Testing - some require it now, and some don't - what path makes sense?

• The number of schools on the “more selective” list continues to grow

• Substantial changes to the FAFSA, Dept of Education, and financial aid may make college more expensive
