Dr. Jill Greenbaum’s 5 step process, Making the GRADE, is the easiest, fastest, least expensive way to create the short list of colleges that are the best matches! The steps are:

• RESEARCH – learn about the path to choosing colleges, where you are on the path and what colleges seek in students
• ANALYZE – appraise your academic record and extracurricular activities, and draft a list of colleges
• DECIDE – determine the colleges that are the best matches, move forward with completing applications and interviews for a select group of colleges
• EVALUATE – reflect on who you are becoming and choose which college environment will enable you to thrive

In this book, teens step into responsibility for their search, engage in Dr. Greenbaum’s “coach approach” to the college search, use her visual maps and multimedia resources to complete—and thrive—during the journey. In it, teens discover strategies, tools, and tips designed to help them enjoy (most of) the college selection process. This hands–on approach is fresh, different, and totally engaging—the way the college search should be!
