  Applying to college is such a long process. There are so many things I have to get to get done with such little time. Im still caught up on the fact that I am a senior. I still cant believe all the people I grew up is either in college or applying. Its nice to watch somebody go and do better things and grow up but, its weird when its time for you to grow up. I am so grateful to be in a program like Street Squash to help me with applying to college. One thing I have to work on during this applying to college process is time management. I have to make sure I turn everything in on time because that is extremely important. I have to make sure I know all my due dates so I wont miss out on any opportunities. One of my biggest challenges during this college process is my college list. College lists are list of colleges you like and you plan to apply to. My issue with this is I am not sure on what college I want to go to. There are so many schools that I have visited and that I liked. Im unsure on which to pick. Another issue with applying to college is finding a school that will accept my GPA which is 78.58 . As well as my SAT scores. Going into my Senior year of high school I did research on colleges and learned that there are many schools that will accept my grades. Another challenge that I face during this process is looking into schools and seeing what they offer. Im afraid that ill go to a school were none of there majors interest me. Something I regret is not doing my research during my sophomore and junior year. I feel like if I did previous research on schools building my college list wouldnt be so difficult.
