School has finally started! Now that students and teachers are back in the classrooms, it’s time to start thinking about your plans for the year. If you’re not entirely sure what you need to be doing for your student, whether they’re in kindergarten or a senior in high school, we have a checklist you can download to get you on the right track!
These are not meant to be exhaustive or stressful, but as a guideline to give you an idea of what you or your student can be doing to help them get prepared for their next step in their education.
If your student is a senior, you will notice that their checklist is divided into Fall/Spring/Summer. Because they’re so close to their next step, this checklist is designed to make sure all the most important items are prioritized as best as possible. Starting with preparing for and completing the FAFSA in the fall and then working on other supplemental financial aid in the spring, this checklist should make sure they have everything accounted for!
We don’t want anyone unsure of what they’re doing, and if you have any questions about anything on these checklists, there are almost certainly more tools and publications on UCanGo2.org to answer those questions. For anything else, please feel free to reach out to us, and we will do our best to help you out! Good luck this year!
