What are your deadlines? Check the chart you started back in September and make sure you are aware of your next application deadline. Many colleges have 12/15 and 1/1/ deadlines. If you lost your chart, use the one attached to this email or come and get one from me.
Application Help on Wednesday 2:30-4:00 - See you in the Library!
