There are a variety of resources available to help students in the search for the right college. One of the resources I have not talked about before are the blogs of students who have just been through the college admissions process. Although there are limits to any resource, the student blogs provides a different prospective than that provided by professional college counselors like myself.

Among the better student blogs is The College Student Blog, written by Parker, a student at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign.  This blog is fairly new but many of the entries I have seen would be helpful for students in the college search process.

If you would like help finding the best college for you or your student, I offer a FREE 1/2 hour consultation to discuss your needs for college admissions counseling. Give me a call now at 952-449-5245 or drop me an email.
