So what now?

<p>So I'm sure alotta people are finishing or close to finishing their college applications. Decisions don't come out till April 1st and Decisions probably aren't made till mid-March at least that's what people tell me. So what can we do in the time between now and mid-March to help our chances at our schools?</p>

<p>Keep in contact, especially with good news. If you win a new award or something, let the colleges know.</p>

<p>Also, of course, keep your grades up.</p>

<p>Lol i mean like....what like competitions and things could I potentially enter between now and mid-march?</p>

<p>keep grades up and anything amazing you do...send it to them.</p>

<p>As to competitions and stuff, find ones in things you're passionate about. Google stuff like "national _____ high school competition". It worked for me and writing; I found a ton of ones I'm interested in entering.</p>

<p>Thanks for the suggestion!</p>

<p>Anyone know if the UCs want to be updated on things like awards and stuff?</p>
