10 Hottest Careers Spotlight: Nursing
Nurses are often considered the backbone of a hospital system. They provide nurturing care to those in need, working tirelessly to bring comfort and healing to patients on their watch. But they are really so much more. They can be the comforting hand that holds yours as you go through a trying experience. They can be a wealth of information when you are trying to process overwhelming information. They can offer a warm smile when celebrating with you, or speak up for you as a patient advocate when you need it. They wear a thousand hats and carry even more responsibility in their jobs. So if your student has a caring heart, and a desire to care for others, nursing may be a career to consider. Several factors, such as longer life expectancies, and a shortage of qualified individuals, have lead to an increased demand in nursing professionals at all levels. And in some states, nursing professionals only need an Associate's Degree, which makes the career attractive as well. Plus nurses have high earning potential. In fact, according to this US News report, "In 2012, registered nurses made an average salary of $67,930, which is pretty good pay compared with some of the other health care jobs on this year's list of the Best Jobs of 2014."

No matter how you look at it, college is an expensive proposition these days. Both public and private colleges and universities have had to raise fees and tuition as costs have increased. As a result, college student debt has skyrocketed and many students end up with loan payments years, sometimes even decades, after graduation. But with some careful planning and creative thinking, there are lots of other ways to help pay for college and avoid being stuck with big loan payments after graduation. One final but important step in the college application process is to include an application for financial aid.
As parents, and grandparents for that matter, we consider it to be a bit of a rite of passage to tell our children just how easy they have it compared to what we went through at their age. File this under the “when I was your age, I had to walk 2 miles to school each day, uphill both ways” category.
For any parent of a college-bound student, SAT and ACT test scores are no doubt at the center of most dinner table discussions. While no one will argue that test scores alone are the deciding factor in college admissions, and many colleges are moving toward a test-optional admissions policy, strong scores on the SAT and or ACT can definitely help a student’s chance of gaining admission to his/her college of choice.
