What should we be doing now to help in my daughters college decision process?
As a rising senior you should follow up on all contact you have received from those schools you have an interest in attending. Try not to be concerned about what level of play that is but rather if that school fits all of your needs. E-mail any coaches you have been in touch with and let them know if you want to go there. Narrow your list of choices to your top three realistic schools and make sure you are happy with those decisions. Keep one or two dream schools on the list because you never know what may happen. Look at the admissions forms and see if you are allowed to send additional letters of recommendation. Every thing you can do to separate yourself from the pack of applications will be a help. As a rising junior, now is the time to see as many schools as possible. Long weekends or an overnight trip to look at as many campuses as possible is a great idea. E-mail coaches of schools you are interested in and ask if you can see the facilities when you plan a visit to the school. K
