The Everything College Checklist Book
The path to higher education is filled with college
visits, paperwork, letters of recommendation, essays,
and application fees — and that’s just to get in! After
that comes the financial aid paperwork, student loan
notes, scholarship applications, and vouchers — and
that’s just to pay for it! Then comes the roommate
compatibility survey, the lists of what to pack, what
supplies are need for classes, and the lists go on and
on.
The Everything College Checklist Book
is here to
help. These valuable checklists help students keep
track of applications, references, transcripts, and finan-
cial aid. There are lists of questions to ask potential
roommates, what to pack for dorm life, and ideas for
the supplies needed for stress-free studying. It’s the
ultimate guide for making a smooth transition into
college life.
