As Jordan quoted

“Rejections can be overwhelming or scary. But they don't mean the end of the world. Learn from them and seek other opportunities. You can achieve great things and those things aren't limited to four years of experience in college.”

What should Juniors be doing right now?

🎯Since most schools require SAT the coming cycle you should prepare and take the SAT if possible until August.
It is recommended that you don’t postpone it to your senior year (October and November) as you will be busy with Models and studying for National examination.

🎯 Building your college list. Make your research with the time you have. DIG IN DEEP!! Use google spreadsheet or Ms Excel to organize your thoughts.

🔴Major Factors to consider while building your college list.

✨Financial Aid
Colleges and universities are expensiveee and getting an ample financial aid is the concern of many international students. So aim for those that can fund your studies without causing much burden on you and your family.

✨Your intended Major
Do you research again! Search for institutions that have a good department for your major.

🎯 Work on your Extracurriculars!!
Strength your profile with the time you’re left with. Time flies by quickly so make sure to be systematic. Focus on projects and activities that align with your goal. It’s not about quantity; it’s about quality! So participate in impactful activites, not all for the sake of “participation”

🎯Ask for Recommendations
Ask recommendations from your teachers early. It’s better to have it by the end of your Junior year. Make sure to ask one of your senior year teachers as well because admissions officers need a context of you recently.

Good luck Juniors!! Don’t stress, just try to use your time wisely. Wishing you all the best. We believe in you✨ We can’t wait for your acceptances.
