PLEASE do not reply to this email, contact maryjacobs at berkeley.net.



College Admissions representatives are creating content to accommodate
distance learning/advising/college searches. I received several notices for
info sessions this week at Macalester College, Bryn Mawr, and Rhode Island
School of Design on 8/19-20.  Jump on a mailing list so you can join in!



1. Go to the college or university website. Start at the admissions page.
Check out admission requirements and deadlines, majors, curriculum,
extracurricular activities, etc.

2. Join mailing lists at the colleges of interest for you.

3. Sign up for virtual campus tours, Zoom information sessions, or live
chats with a representative.
