How many colleges should they apply to?
The amount of colleges your child applies to is a personal decision, however five to eight schools is the recommended number. All schools should be colleges that your child would be happy to attend, but including a few safety schools as well as reach ones into their realistic matches are always a good idea.
Should they apply early?
If your child is absolutely sure which college they want to attend, early decision could be a great choice for them. If they are still on the fence about where they want to attend, it’s best to wait. Some early application schools require them to commit early so they should be sure before they apply.

Are paper or online applications best?
Check with each college your child is applying to to see what they prefer. Online applications are more convenient for you and your child and are often preferred as they are easier to review and process. Be sure to take advantage of the coalition, common, and universal applications, that lets students apply to multiple colleges with a single application.
Should my child apply to colleges if their test scores or grades are below their published ranges?
Yes--Admission scores and grades that colleges show on their websites are only averages or ranges. There are students at every college who scored outside of the range that are stated. However, if you are worried about your child performing well on the college entrance exams, Club Z! can help. Keep in mind though, that schools often take into consideration the overall picture of your child where activities, letters of recommendations and their essay are also factors.
