Switching gears, our second speaker will focus on college and the importance of preparing for college as early as possible. She has a lot of experience in the field and can be of great value in answering questions you might have. Here are a few things I would like for you to think about in relation to her presentation:
- Why is college of personal importance to you? What is the number one reason you want to go to college? Name a few schools you would be interested in attending and why those schools stand out as "top choices." Feel free to spend a moment looking at schools on the College-board Website
- What do you know about the college application process? Outline the process to the best of your ability for me in terms of what is required for a successful applicant! Start with grades all the way to pushing the submit button.
- What is your personal brand? A personal brand is typically an impression you form in the mind of others. What would you say your personal brand is with your friends? Does it differ from the personal brand you have established with your teachers? boss? mentor?
Tomorrow should be an amazing opportunity for you and all Academy students to think about all of the options you have ahead of you. All I ask you to take advantage of the opportunity!
