The college application process can feel overwhelming, but getting started early can make all the difference. If you’re a high school sophomore or junior (or even a freshman!), now is the perfect time to take charge of your college journey and lay the foundation for a smooth, successful admissions season.

In this webinar, College Admissions Expert Katie Chiou will walk you through what matters most at this stage of high school - from choosing the right classes and building a balanced extracurricular profile to exploring potential majors and creating a realistic testing and application timeline. You’ll learn how to identify your academic strengths, find opportunities for leadership and impact, and start narrowing down the types of colleges that fit your goals and interests.
