DUE BY TOMORROW, OCTOBER 9TH!!!

Blog about what was most surprising about your budget.  What did you expect? What did you not expect? Are you ready for all of that responsibility?  Were there any realizations? Last, what can you do now to prepare for those expenses later?

Remember to respond to your row.  Give them good responses, please.  Take the time to consider what they wrote and respect them enough to respond with consideration.

October 9th- October 15th

Alright guys! Now it's time to get serious! You need to really think and figure out your top 3 schools.  When you have narrowed down the list (4 is acceptable but 2 IS NOT), you need to take a look at their admission process and make a checklist for ALL things you need for EACH college.  I have provided more info for you...READ IT! Don't ask me questions until you have.  This is a "college-based" course and YOU are the leader.  I have even provided an EXAMPLE so there isn't much to ask.  These checklists are due a week from today and must EACH be SIGNED by a parent/guardian.
Good Luck!
