Scared Senior
I'm a senior in hs applying for colleges and I've been filling out the application and I'm really scared. I don't have very much experience in clubs and organizations at all, I hardly have any awards or honors, and I haven't done very much community service either, especially any community service that I do annually which is what colleges like.
So I'm kind of nervous. What should I do? It's november, and most applications are due pretty quickly, is there any time left for me? Obviously I can't try to be president of a club because those things are already set so late in the year, and I've joined many more clubs this year than the last three years, but what else can I do? Will any college accept me with my lack of experience in pretty much everything?? PLease, ANY advice would be so appreciated. I'm totally freaked out right now
Thanks

Maybe give some free advice about: Colleges & Universities?
there's college for everyone!
what you've done isn't amazinggg but you did something in 4 years. it's not going to get you into Harvard but it can get you into a good regular school. there's people in your grade that havent even taken the sat, that don't do any clubs and have straight c's that will end up in a community college. you are fine!
did you have some kind of job or participate in religious activities/youth group?
those count too!
relax! <3

You will get into a college it just may not be your dream college or a college you really want to go to. There are certain colleges that will accept just about anyone. I wouldn't set your standards too high though as you wont get into an IV league or an amazing school, but you will get in somewhere. I'm pretty sure there is nothing you can do as far as getting more things to write on your application as the deadline is steadily approaching and junior year is your most important year as far as those things go and that has already passed, but don't stress you will get in SOMEWHERE and yes it will be a university. So take a deep breath and relax. =)
Hope this helped <3

Your school guidance councilor can help you with this. A part of their job is helping you in any way possible with getting you into college.
They can go over your files with you and help you figure out exactly what you need to do in your specific situation.
