Product Description
Choosing a college can be thrilling?like shopping for a whole new life. But it?s overwhelming, too. Everyone at Seventeen knows what it?s like to go blind reading through school listings, stress about your grades, and sweat through hours of standardized testing. So they?ve devised a planner that will make the process easier and give their millions of readers that Seventeen edge. Created by a professional admission strategist, its authoritative text will help girls get in touch with their real selves and figure out where to go?for college and beyond.
Seventeen?s Guide to Getting into College leads you through every step of the admission process: knowing your schools, making the grades, writing your story, putting yourself to the test, impressing the interviewer, finding the cash, getting ready to apply, and what to do once you?re in. It includes a master four-year-calendar to map out your game plan (because it?s never too early to start thinking about that AP class or extracurricular activity); a pocket organizer for keeping track of college brochures, financial aid info, and other important papers; oodles of advice; and fun stuff, like interactive exercises, a ?brag sheet? to tote up your honors, and ?17 Must-Ask Questions!?
So if you?re freaking out about college (or can?t wait to start), this just might put you over the top?and into your first choice!

5 out of 5 stars The Must-Have College Guide For Every Girl!   August 26, 2008
Jaye Fenderson takes the overwhelming process of finding, applying to, deciding on, and financing a college education exactly what it should be for every girl - full of excitement, anticipation, and adventure! Back in my high school days, I don't recall having anything this comprehensive and easy to understand available at my fingertips. Her prompts for beginning a character sketch as a jumping-off point for writing essays are excellent and thought-provoking, and she encourages each girl to tell her own story instead of just writing what they think admissions officers want to hear. This book is chock full of fun quizzes, need-to-know test prep tips, financial aid advice, and generally makes the daunting admissions process seem not so scary. Reading this book is like having your questions answered by your own personal admissions officer - even some questions you may not have thought of yet! Jaye keeps it real and positive, even when discussing the possibility of getting a rejection letter, and gives solid advice about what you can do to help make your college dreams a reality. I would recommend this book as required reading for any girl thinking that she might like to pursue her education!
