INTOTHEBEST Takes the Stress Out of College Applications

Another college application season is heating up and one million high-school seniors are putting their best foot forward and competing for the same spots. After buying a house, paying for their children�s education is the largest investment most parents make. It is critical to tap all the resources necessary to ensure their acceptance at the best school for them.

Levittown, NY (PRWEB) October 27, 2024 -- We strongly urge you to complete your applications well ahead of the deadlines, at least a week before the stated deadline. A great method to make that happen is to review the application materials as soon as you receive the applications from the various schools. Any forms to be completed by guidance counselors and teachers should be distributed well ahead of the stated deadline times. We know of several friends whose hopes of attending individual schools were scuttled by a disorganized, overwhelmed, or misdirected teacher. Check on the status of your recommendations before the last minute. Also, make additional copies of whatever portions you plan to submit so that you may quickly re-send your application forms should they be somehow mutilated or lost. Dogs are hungry for applications this year, we hear.
