Juniors: What you can do NOW to submit a Letter of Recommendation (LOR) as a Senior
As you begin to build your college list, find out if you need letters of recommendation to apply. After researching and understanding the requirements for each school, begin to figure out what teachers would best REINFORCE your application. (You can also wait and use your senior year teachers)
Ask your teacher(s) in person if they would be willing to write you a strong letter of recommendation.
If they agree to write a LOR for you , complete the Class of 2024 Teacher Letter of Recommendation Survey on Naviance. (About Me, Surveys from your School)
Teachers rely on this survey to shape your LOR. You need to take your time and answer each question completely.
The better the survey, the better the LOR.
More details will be provided at the beginning of your senior year at the IB/College Grade Level Meeting on how to Officially Request a Teacher.
In the Fall of your senior year: more details will be provided.
Officially request teachers electronically in Naviance (more information at Fall Senior Meeting)

FIVE ADMISSIONS TIPS - What to Do This Summer? from College Wise Newsletter
1. Get a job
No, we don't necessarily mean a high-profile internship or a fancy-sounding title at your mother or father's company. We mean a regular job, like washing cars, waiting tables, or stocking inventory. Finding, getting, and keeping a job takes initiative, responsibility and hard work, all good traits. And any kid who earns an honest dollar flipping burgers is always appealing to colleges.
2. Make a local impact
You don't necessarily have to save the world to show colleges you can make good contributions to the people around you. Volunteer at a local homeless shelter. Run the lights for the school musical. Offer to bake your best dish for the French Club's bake sale. There are always ways you can impact your local community, your school, or your fellow students.
3. Take a fun class
Sure, you could take trigonometry in summer school so that you can jump to Pre-calculus next year. But you could also learn about jazz, cooking, modern art, web page design, dance, politics or whatever else interests you. Whether you take physics or photography, colleges will be impressed by your desire to learn.
4. Try something you've always wanted to do
If you play drums and have always wanted to start a band, get the group together. Wish you knew how to beat the snot out of your older brother? Take karate lessons. Think working at a bookstore would be fun? Fill out an application and see what happens. Colleges love kids who have initiative and curiosity, so don't be afraid to try something new.
5. Relax
Of course, we're not saying that you shouldn't work hard. But if you spend every waking hour calculating how to plan your life to impress colleges, you're going to drive yourself crazy. So work hard, but make sure you choose activities that you enjoy. Follow your interests. Show the colleges that you're a happy, well-adjusted kid who loves life. You'll be pleasantly surprised by how far that goes to impress colleges.
FAFSA Changes 2023: A Student and Parent's Guide (From Cappex)
When you complete the FAFSA next school year, you'll get to do it with the new and improved Better FAFSA.
What is the FAFSA?
The FAFSA is the form you fill out to apply for federal financial aid for college. States and colleges also use the data from your FAFSA to determine eligibility for the financial aid they award. In short, filling out the FAFSA is the first step in accessing financial aid.
Some Expected Changes With the Better FAFSA Application
1. The FAFSA will be shorter
To increase access, the updated FAFSA will have fewer questions and take less time to complete. This should provide a better user experience and help more students and families complete the FAFSA and receive aid.
2. You'll need an FSA ID to complete the application
To complete the FAFSA, you'll need to create and confirm a new FSA ID. Then each time you log in, you'll need to verify through a multi-factor authentication process. These changes will not only help keep your information secure, but they will also allow people without social security numbers to apply for aid.
3. The Student Aid Index (SAI) will replace the Expected Family Contribution (EFC)
You will see a different measure for your ability to pay for college. The old EFC, which many are familiar with, will be replaced with the new SAI. And unlike the EFC, which cannot be lower than $0, the SAI can be as low as -$1,500.
4. There is a new need analysis formula
There are a few changes in this area. One of them removes the number of family members currently in college from the eligibility calculation. Another adds consideration for your family's makeup, size, and income and will be calculated using Federal Poverty Tables to determine eligibility for Federal Pell Grants.
5. Family members logging into the FAFSA will be assigned roles
When a student begins the FAFSA, they will be guided through identifying any parent(s) or spouse who will need to log in to share financial information. From there, each person will be assigned a role and can only see questions related to their role.
6. The drug conviction & Selective Service registration questions will be removed
Previously, FAFSA required students to disclose any drug convictions and confirm they'd registered for the Selective Service if needed, which could have affected eligibility for financial aid.
7. You will be able to list up to 20 colleges
Previously, students were limited to only listing ten colleges or universities on the application, but now they can list up to 20 schools.
Whole article linked here.10 Questions Your Students Should Ask When Getting Interviewed for a Job (Here are 5 of the 10)
Click on the link for all ten questions - From LINK for Counselors
When your students begin interviewing for a job how will they know if the company is a good fit for them? There are questions they can ask to help determine if the company is the right culture fit. Here are five of the ten good questions your students should consider asking:
1. Why is this position available?
Why to ask it: The answer from this question can tell you a few helpful things: whether this is a new position (which comes with its own challenges), or whether someone left the position because they were promoted, moved laterally at the company, quit, or were fired. Whatever the answer, you will learn something valuable about the job and team you might join.
2. What makes it a great day and what makes it a challenging day at work?
Why to ask it: Rather than a vague question about what a “typical day” may look like, this subtle, yet hard-hitting question will allow you to get a much clearer picture of the highs and lows of the job.
3. When was the last time you promoted someone within your team, and why?
Why to ask it: This question can provide insight into what the hiring manager considers to be the most important traits, skill sets, and achievements to progress within the company. Plus, it also gives intel on career progression within the organization and how often employees are able to move up through the ranks.
4. What are some of the challenges you expect the person in this position to face?
Why to ask it: Every job will have its challenges, but asking about them specifically can help you learn what they may be ahead of time and whether they’re the types of challenges you’d feel comfortable tackling.
5. Do you have any hesitancy in hiring me?
Why to ask it: This offers a chance to immediately address anything they might say, and hopefully help the interview move past whatever is making them hesitant about hiring you for the role. Plus, it can provide solid information for how to improve for future interviews.
