In this episode, Chris and Elizabeth discuss what students in 8th, 9th, and 10th grade should consider as they begin thinking ahead to the college admissions process. We cover a wide variety of topics in this episode, including:

  • The development of soft skills and how these serve students during their high school journey.
  • The benefits of going on an early college tour.
  • How researching the college admissions process early can help reduce anxiety for students and their families in the long run.
  • The need for some students to see items associated with college admissions in a tangible way as they work toward the application process.
