Applying To A CollegeDeciding Where To ApplyYou will probably find that the most difficult part of the college selection process is trying to predict what will happen as a result of your decision. Unfortunately, even good decision making involves risk. You will be in a better position, however, to judge the degree of risk and uncertainty if you do a thorough job of collecting and evaluating information as it applies to your situation. Why spend time and money applying to schools that will not offer the financial aid you need? We can help you locate those schools, public and private, that are looking for students with your profile. Many schools will offer money based on MERIT to attract certain profile students to their campus. That's where The Power of Working Together® helps our members receive thousands of dollars that they may have overlooked, without the right information . . . and the right approach. Predicting Your ChancesCollege Admissions: Your chances of being admitted to a particular college depend on the type of institution you are considering. Open-admission colleges accept virtually all interested students who have a high school degree or equivalent. Most colleges in this country classify themselves as selective . . . they admit all or most applicants who meet their specific requirements. Some colleges with selective admission policies are considered competitive because more applicants meet their requirements than they are willing or able to accommodate. Number Of Colleges To Apply ToThere is no ideal number of applications for every student. A good rule of thumb is to file as many applications as you need, but not more than you need to ensure that you will be accepted by a college you prefer. There may be one application or several, depending on your own requirements and on the admissions and financial aid procedures of the colleges you choose.
