As winter break ends and students start preparing for numerous different tests like the SAT, ASVAB, and other standardized tests, some senior students start to look at different colleges they would want to attend to further their education and career in the field they want to master. A lot of senior students start looking at colleges when they’re juniors and when they are seniors they start taking visits to different colleges during the school day or afterwards. A lot of people also talk to their counselors for guidance and support on where to go for college, trade school, military, etc. and just what would be best for their skills in general. Seniors also discuss many great ways to get scholarships and other financial support for what they want to do in the future.
