You applied, now what??
Waiting game: While you wait for notice, please check your portal and emails. The university will most likely provide you with a username and password for your portal and sometimes they even provide you an email address for their institution. It is imperative that you check your personal email, portal and university emails DAILY!!! You certainly do not want to miss anything.
You got in, now what???
Once you have been admitted to universities you must maintain your good habit of checking emails and portals. Now this is the part where you sit down with your family and counselor and compare financial aid packages. There are several things to consider. The sheet below will be a great guide on what to consider. Remember that you MUST declare a university, pay deposit (if applicable) by College Signing Day which is May 1st!!! If you can take care of this before that day, even better.
