Step 2
Take your SAT or ACT (or whatever other tests the colleges you are planning to apply to require).
Step 3
Start applying to colleges. UC/CSU open their application periods in October. If you are applying to out-of-state or private colleges, make sure you watch carefully for their application period opening date!
Step 4
Do well in your senior year classes - don't slow down! You MUST finish your senior year classes with NO D's or F's!
Step 5 – All done!
Graduate, enjoy your summer, and get ready - the next step of your life is waiting for you!
