Building a Smart College List; Summer Planning Starts Now; Financial Aid Basics for February

Here at College Coach we have a resident college list expert, Nial Rele, who is joining our host, Kyra Tyler, to discuss how to create your list of colleges. This is more complicated than you may anticipate, as it should include colleges that are reach schools, target schools, and safety schools, and figuring out which is which can be challenging. In addition, colleague Christine Kenyon will be there to discuss what students should be thinking about doing over the summer, and why it's important to discuss it already in February. Last, College Coach finance colleague Zachary Gries will be talking about February as financial aid awareness month. He'll use this excellent opportunity to discuss financial aid basics and timelines.
