Complete & Send...Then Wait!

After working diligently on your applications and essays, you are ready to send!

...Well, not so fast there!!

Make sure you check over all of the pages in your applications (often filled out online) and have everything completed. Get an extra pair of eyes if you can to look it over, too.

Then, start making your application packages. Check all of your labels, addresses, vouchers (if you qualify) and complete them. Once they are ready to go, bring them into a post office to ge them weighed so you can get the appropriate price to send. Then, off they go!

Congratulations, this is a HUGE step and you made it. Results are made from what you put in so no doubt that your hard work will pay off.

Now, the wait...

Waiting...

Yes, you will be waiting for a while. The time varies from institution to institution but I remember submitting my applications in December and didn't hear back from schools until March so maybe that can help some of you for a benchmark.

Any advice for students getting ready to send and wait? Something helpful that I may have missed? Any questions or comments - post below!
