High school families should start planning for 2023 and 2024 scholarships now. Juniors should start applying for outside scholarships immediately. We know many students don’t even think about applying for these scholarships until they are into their senior year. Big mistake! For many of these sources of financial aid, the deadline will expire at that point.

by Patrick O'Connor, Ph.D. I don’t always write a summary column, but there were more than enough nuggets of newness this year to put together a list that makes you remember, consider, and prepare for next year. Test optional Many colleges have decided it’s time to go back to requiring the SAT or ACT simply because—well, they can. It’s frustrating that the test-no-test debate is based on intuition, and not data—if a college has evidence it needs a test, fine with me; otherwise, forget it.
