FOR SOPHOMORES

Sophomore year is about building, not deciding.

By the time families come to me with a sophomore, they are often already worried about the college process, when they don't need to be! Sophomore year is about building, not deciding. Parents, there is no need to panic.

What matters at this stage is ensuring your student is aligned academically and extracurricularly. Now is the time to develop interests at a deeper level through clubs, volunteer work, a part-time job, anything genuine. Thinking through these choices now will save you from last-minute scrambling and regrets later.

It's a long process any way you slice it, and adding student stress now isn't worth it.
