For the good of the class, comment the links to college applications below.
Youniversitytv.com offers virtual tours of universities around the country.
Commonapp.org—One application, 390 universities.
In lieu of a final this session, we’ll kick off the college search with a few applications to get you comfortable with the process. Fill out the OU and OSU applications to the best of your ability–we’ll look over them tomorrow and I’ll give you some feedback. Also, bring three other applications from universities of your choice.
In case I don’t say it enough in class:
Visit colleges this summer.
Get a group of your friends (and a parent or two) and hit the road. Integrate college visits into your vacations. Talk to people back from college for the summer. Talk to the people with the job you dream about.1 The College Visit is a rite of passage; dive in.
Last thing:
I know a number of you signed up for the Senior Visit Day at TU; if you didn’t, there is still time.
Just a quick reminder that your (hypo)theses1, journals, and research are due Monday. Because that will be our field day, all classes will be moved to before lunch, so get to school early (I’m there at 7:30) to print anything off. If you are out sick, send me an email with the above information.
Let me know if you have any questions.
