What advice would you give to rising seniors?

Applying to College
1

<p>Well, high school class of 2014, it is May 1 and most all of our college admissions experiences are done. Now it is the class of 2015 who will be starting the craziness of it all soon. We have just lived through it and I'm sure we all can offer a bit of advice.
What do you want the high school class of 2015 to know about college admissions and the process?</p>

<p>To you current juniors, I would say: Aim high!! Don’t be afraid of rejections. I got rejections, but I also got into some schools I never though I would. Also, realize that your decision at one place will not indicate the decision somewhere else. For example, I was deferred at an honors college at a big state university but accepted at a Top 10 school with a <10% acceptance rate. How can one explain that?
Good luck with applying to college!</p>
