Don't Despair: Good Colleges Still Have Openings

After an even tougher admissions season than last year, just about all high school seniors heading to college now know where they’re going; May 1 was the deadline. That means colleges found out if fewer kids accepted admission than anticipated -- and how many slots they still had open. For kids who felt they weren’t left with decent choices for college, including the financial component, here’s The National Association for College Admissions Counseling (NACAC)list of 375 colleges that have room in their classes of 2016. This is a noble task that NACAC takes on, one that colleges and students can appreciate. And it reminds us that there are always open doors, always second chances. If you are still looking for a college, good luck and study this list well.
