The #BacktoSchool season, many of our @CollegePoint students are looking #ForwardtoCollege: High-achieving, low-income students like Shannon, from Hartsgrove, OH, are aiming higher & attending schools they deserve with our virtual advising. https://t.co/5EiS4ZXi3M

Talent should rise to the top, no matter a student's zip code. Josiah--from Yucca Valley, CA--credits @MatriculateOrg's guidance for his pathway to @Princeton. Now, he advises other stellar, low-income students to aim high. #ForwardtoCollege https://t.co/4ux4oyyFfs

America's best & brightest come from all economic backgrounds. That's why we're helping stellar, low-income students like Texarkana, AR native Cordy access top schools & careers. Cordy returns to @RiceUniversity this fall! #ForwardtoCollege @MatriculateOrg https://t.co/5EiS4ZXi3M

Xavier wasn't sure he could get into his dream school. This fall, the Wenatchee, WA native starts @Stanford. He credits his @ScholarMatch advisor for helping him aim higher for college and career. We can't wait to see what he does next. #ForwardtoCollege https://t.co/0XUCul5PJk

[CAC eAdvising @CACeAdvisers]

Our virtual advising program @ScholarMatch helped Katy, TX native Marie-Anne dream big. The first person in her family to go to college, she's now @BrownUniversity with full financial aid. We can't wait to see how she changes the world. #ForwardtoCollege https://t.co/BJqKLGBf99

@CollegeFindMe @American_CAC @AmericasPromise @MyBigFuture @summerlearning Thanks to you all for hosting!! There were so many awesome insights shared! #CFMchat

[CollegeFindMe @CollegeFindMe]

A6: Absolutely. Students should use the summer when their minds are clear and there is no school work on drafting their essays. #CFMchat

[CAC eAdvising @CACeAdvisers]

@CollegeFindMe A6: Practicing essays during the summer months is a great idea! Your essays are one area of your application where you can really set yourself apart, so you want to be sure that your essays portray your personality and capture your authentic voice. #CFMchat

A5: Check out prep books at your local library! Ask your peers and recent graduates if they have any resources or prep books that you can keep. (And then pass it along to a peer once you're done!) #CFMchat
