Can homeschoolers go to college? How can I best prepare my child for college? How do we select a college? What should a transcript look like? What financial helps are available? What’s FAFSA and TAFSA? How can I find out about scholarships? What’s the difference between the PSAT, SAT, and ACT, and what is the CLT? Should my child take CLEP tests? What about dual credit and does it all transfer?

Who should attend and why? Families with students entering high school, but particularly those who are in 10th, 11th, and 12th grades. It is best to start your search early in the high school years, and begin to narrow down your selections as you near graduation. Additionally, there are several important deadlines that occur between the junior and senior year in high school, and you will want to be prepared ahead of time so there are no surprises.
