5 tips for stress management while applying to college

5 tips for stress management while applying to college 5 tips  from an Irvine college admissions consultant for stress management while applying to college Its very stressful applying to college in the first place but, when added to all of the other responsibilities a high school senior has, it can become overwhelming. Stress management is one of the most important tools young students can use to thrive through this challenging yet important time in their academic careers. Whether students are working on time management or a specific strategy to get into their dream college, there are several things both students and parents can do to make life easier our private Irvine college admissions consultants have a 97% success rate. 1. Get on the same page One really important thing for students and parents to do is to sit down and get on the same page in regards to the college application process. In many instances, students and parents have different ideas of when things should get done, how many schools they should apply to, or other important details regarding admissions. If possible, students and parents should sit down before they even start the process but, at this point in the year, its good just to have a chat about what still needs to be completed and within what timeframe. 2.   Prioritize applications by due dates At this point in the process, its also important for students to prioritize their applications by the due date. Most schools have a due date of December 1, but some will allow students to apply as late as January or even offer a rolling deadline. Parents can also help students stay on track by setting aside some time for them at the weekend where they can concentrate 100% on the college admissions process (READ: 4 Differences Between High School and College English Courses). 3.   Set aside a particular time during the week just for college applications Once a student sits down for their specified application time, its important that they start out by getting organized. Is there anything thats due within the next week? Anything they need to send to their college counselor? Any important revisions they need to make? After a student is completely organized, they can start working on their personal statements as well as their supplemental essays for each university. If students are using the Common Application, they will be able to write one main essay but may need to answer several supplemental questions that describe who they are as a student and person. Providing a separate time for these tasks allows students to focus totally on their applications and deal with other homework assignments later on. 4. Work with a college counselor Its imperative that students work with a college counselor at some point during the application process. Whether they work with the counselor at their school or with an independent consultant, these professionals have important up-to-date information that students may find difficult to locate and process on their own. Counselors can help students choose different types of colleges to apply to, help them fill out their various forms, and give them essential feedback on their personal statement. 5.   Have a backup plan (or two) Its also a good idea for students to have a backup plan. If a student has their heart set on just one particular university, parents can provide helpful suggestions for similar universities they can apply to â€" just in case. For the most part, students choose one or two dream schools that make up their primary plan, but they should have target schools, safety schools, and other options in the works so that they have the best chance of going to a great university after graduation, even if it wasn’t their first choice.

University Fees - Tutor Hunt Blog

University Fees University Fees University FeesUniversitiesUniversity Fees - are they making higher education a privilege only the affluent can afford? Should education be free? Is education a right (indeed a human right) or is it a privilege? If education does indeed, so the old philosophy says, set you free, should you have to pay for this freedom. It`s only relatively recently that the realms of higher education have been available to everyone. Before the second world war it was mostly families of affluence who sent their children to university. When I was a student the only criteria was your academic ability: If you can make the grade, you gain admittance. Certainly nothing should hold any student back but their own intellect. Of course those very abilities may well depend on the primary and secondary schools they have attended. Even the quality of nurseries varies widely, as research conducted by the University of Oxford, and published by the Nuffield Foundation in 2014, has shown. This study pointed out that there is a distinct `nursery gap.` in areas of differing affluence. Private and voluntary (not-for-profit) nurseries and preschools situated in disadvantaged areas, were seen to be of considerably lower quality than those catering to children in more advantaged areas. The report suggested the main reason for this was t hat more teachers were applying to the nurseries and schools in the affluent areas, and that these schools could offer a better wage; and with more applicants the schools could select the teachers they thought were best suited, while being able to employ more, and so keep class sizes down. University tuition fees were introduced by the Labor government back in 1998. By today`s standards the charges seem very modest - around 1000 a year for most subjects, but there was a huge uproar at the time. The annual fee of 1000 was cited as being a quarter of the cost of the student`s education. The fees were dependant upon parental income, with students from lower income families being exempt form the charge, and were index linked with inflation, reaching 1225 in 2007 08. Maintenance grants, which had been introduced to help cover the costs of students` living fees, were replaced by student loans. The student Loans company had to operate within very strict parameters - any company offering large sums to students (many of whom were away from home for the first time, and could easily be induced to borrow more than was wise) had to be highly regulated. The funds lent wouldn`t have to be repaid until the borrowers were in employment, and earning over a certain amount. The introduction of student fees in 1998 was met with much public outcry - Former Labour education secretary Ted Short said publicly that he was ashamed to be a member of the Labor party; and Ken Livingstone (just prior to him becoming London Mayer in 2000) accused education ministers of `whipping away a ladder of opportunity which they themselves had climbed.` Though largely unreported many universities wanted to raise the tuition fees - petitioning representatives for a `United States-style` system, which would allow them to charge whatever the `market will bear.` Up until 2010 there was a cap on what universities could charge for tuition - at that point it had reached 3,290. In the October of 2010 The Browne review into the future of Higher Education Funding published a document entitled `Securing a Sustainable Future for Higher Education,` that would soon allow fees to soar upwards. While the document was replete was laudable statements such as `Everyone who has the potential should be able to benefit from Higher Education,` and `No-one should have to pay until they start work,` it also proposed the cap should be removed. As quickly as Novemeber of 2010 the government had reached a general agreement that annual fees of 9000 should be introduced, with interest being charged at 2.2% plus inflation. The government finally opted for a tapered rate, dependent on income, which would rise as high as 3%. In the 2015 budget George Osbourne announced that tuition fees, capped at 9000 since 2012, would be index linked to inflation, (and so rising) from the 2017-18 academic year onwards. A fee of 9,250 is now the typical annual charge. Are these fees dissuading people from attending university, or are they necessary to fund the higher education system. I must confess that to me they look astronomical. I was lucky enough to attend university before any charges existed, and was able to get by on my student loans. I fear that there will be many families who simply cant afford the 30,000 it will cost to put a child through university - and large families may well be required to take out a second mortgage to ensure all their children are able to go to university. 22 months ago0Add a Comment

How to revise for chemistry GCSE

How to revise for chemistry GCSE GCSE chemistry revision challenges you in several ways. Aside from having to memorise facts spanning the whole specification, you also need to know your chemistry formulae. As a result, it's hard to know where to start. Here's what you need to know. Start revision early With a subject as broad as chemistry, you need to start your revision earlier in the year, compared to other subjects. This then allows you to break the core topics down into digestible chunks and study them little and often. This method ensures better memory retention and recall. At the same time, stay engaged in your lessons right until your exams. Ask questions, and be honest about your knowledge gaps so your teacher can help you fill them. Identify what you need to know Before you start your revision look at the specification for your examining board and ensure you know what exam papers you have and the exact chemistry topics that will be covered. This will help you to identify what you need to know, and what you don't need. If you're confused in any way, see your Chemistry teacher for confirmation of the core areas. Work out where you are right now Next, looking at the specification work out and highlight everything into three zones: Green indicates what you know and understand. Orange indicates what you vaguely know but aren't sure about. Red indicates what you don't know, and or don't understand. This colour-coded key will help you to see where to focus your revision and where to seek help. Always start with the topics in the red zone as this is the area that will help improve your grade. If you have large knowledge and understanding gaps seek the help of a chemistry tutor who can work with you to catch up. Change up your revision tactics For ideas on how to revise do check out our blog post on How to revise for GCSE science - for general tips and advice. Alongside this, find yourself a chemistry revision partner. Explaining what you have learned to a peer is the best way to work out what you know and understand. It also has the added benefit of someone being able to add ideas that you may not have considered. Work on past papers You will hear this piece of advice a lot. However, it's vital to look at past papers at the right time. Trying them without revising or before you have started your revision is demoralising. Factor them into your revision, but only when your revision is in full swing, and you are ready to test yourself. Ask for help Chemistry involves a lot of concepts, which are essential for you to understand before you apply the information to your exam questions. So, if there are any chemistry topics you don't understand, don't be afraid to ask your teacher or a tutor and bring it up in class. Look here for a chemistry tutor in your area.
