Admissions Tips for High School Juniors The holidays bring a break from school that provides a good time for high school students to make progress in their college searches. The Meredith College Office of Admissions offers the following tips for high school seniors on making the most of this opportunity: 1.Make an appointment with your college counselor to build a list of colleges you should consider. Already have a list? Sit down with your counselor to narrow that list so you can plan visits over spring or summer break. 2.Research the colleges you will visit. Do they require you to make an appointment to take a tour and sit in on an information session? Do they have any upcoming open house dates? Meredith’s Junior Visitation Days are on February 27 or March 27 and we hope to see you there. Check our homepage for online registration after the new year. 3.It’s not too early to start your scholarship search! Check out www.fastweb.com and www.cfnc.or to learn about the variety of outside awards available to college bound students. 4. Have you signed up for the SAT? Do so here.
