My son is now officially a high school senior, where did the time go? He is already taking dual enrollment classes at our local community college and only God knows the plans He has for Aaron down the road.

In talking to my friends I have realized that no one is helping them choose the right college for their child. Even those in public schools with “guidence counselors” aren’t getting the support and information they need to make one of the most important and expensive decisions in their lives so far.

I have been doing some research and I have found some interesting online resources. Over the next few months I will be sharing them with you. I have not received anything from these sites though some of them have asked me to talk about them on my blog.  Some of these sites may see each other as a “competitor” but every family has different needs and different questions about preparing for and choosing a college. I am doing this as a service to you, my readers.

I hope you will find this series of articles helpful and please feel free to share them with your friends via Twitter, Facebook, e-mail, StumbleUpon, Propeller, Digg and any other way you like to share great information.

    I'm not sure his situation or which school he is going to but the summer before he goes to college he should take 2 or even 3 online courses if available. It helped me out so much so that I didnt have to sit through those pretty much redundant from high school 101 and 201 courses. Plus online allows you to work as fast or slow as you like so I felt like I got more accomplished in a shorter period of time. Good luck!
