Your girlfriend's guide to surviving your child's college application process and beyond
Are you preoccupied with your child’s college admissions process?
Do you find yourself spending hours trying to find the answers to “what is a good college?
Should my child submit their SAT/ACT scores, what colleges should we visit, what does demonstrated interest and restrictive early action mean, and what should my child be doing to help them get into said “good” college?
Does the process consume every conversation while at the same time overwhelm you when someone brings up the topic?
You’ve come to the right place.
