Detailing what high school students--from freshmen to seniors--can do to prepare, this updated edition addresses recent changes in admissions and financial aid processes and the increasingly popular early-admissions option. Examples of applications, interviews, and 25 actual college-admission essays complement information on how parents can help without hurting, what it takes to ace the SAT and ACT, and where students can find free cash for tuition. Stories of students' successes and failures reveal how the college-admissions and financial-aid processes really work, while giving a personal face to what is often seen as an impersonal experience. A section for special groups includes admission considerations for athletes, transfer and international students, students with disabilities, and home-schooled students.<p/><br></br><p><b> From the Back Cover </b></p></br></br><br><b>FACT: </b> Harvard rejects half of its applicants who have perfect SAT scores.<br><b>FACT: </b> Stanford rejects half of its applicants who have perfect 4.0 GPAs.<br><b>LESSON: </b> You don't need to be perfect to get into a great college. <p/>Getting into college has always been about showcasing your strengths while minimizing your weaknesses. <i>Get Into Any College</i> presents an easy to follow, step-by-step strategy to marketing yourself to any college.
