Build Your Perfect College List: Module 5
Pulling It All Together
Welcome to Module 5 of Build Your Perfect College List! You’ve made it to the finale. Congratulations!
Your COLLEGE LIST DRIVES EVERYTHING!
That is why we created this program and why we are thrilled that you realized the importance of having your student apply to the right schools.
All this work will put you in the best position to achieve your student’s and family’s college admission goals.
Creating the college list is one of the hardest parts of the college process.
We are so proud of you for sticking with the program. We know it’s not always easy to set aside the time necessary to do this work that is critical to ensure your family meet their college admissions goals. But you did it, and you will be rewarded for it!
KEY REMINDER:
In Module 5 you will:
- Bring everything all together. We will talk about how to consider financial, academic, and non-academic factors all at once.
- Learn how to incorporate data sources into everything.
Your Homework For Module 5:
Put it all together. Build your list in Excel or Google Sheets and put in the pieces of information most important to you and your student as well as what you still want or need to learn (i.e what you’ve found in the past Module assignments).
The college list may change as you proceed on your journey. That is OK! Don’t worry about that. Just make sure you have done your research and had the conversations needed to ensure you are on track and enjoy the ride.
Access the Excel spreadsheet below which is an example of how you can summarize the work you have done, validate you are on target to achieve the results you desire and also identify additional gaps you will need to research to ensure you have all the information you need for a successful college admissions process.
