College Planning for High School Juniors Starts Now! + $90,000+ in Scholarship Opportunities

The Scholarship GPS Podcast: Your Directions to a Debt-Free College Degree

Is the cost of your child's college education keeping you up at night?

Is your college savings plan insufficient or non-existent?

Are you worried that your student will be paying back student loans for the rest of their life?

Those were my fears, too!

I didn't want my son to be burdened with student loans for 20+ years of his life. But, I had failed to save enough money to pay for his college degree. So, I coached him to win nearly $100,000 in scholarships, and he's now a debt-free college graduate!

Students don't need a perfect 4.0 GPA to win scholarships!

Average students can win scholarships if they know how.

Students don't have to come from a low-income household to win scholarships!

Most scholarships don't even ask about a student's financial situation.

Students don't have to be star athletes to win scholarships!

Sports scholarships make up a tiny fraction of the scholarships out there.

Having success with scholarships requires a plan, and that’s what Scholarship GPS provides.

The course features concise video lessons designed to seamlessly fit into your busy schedule, allowing you to learn at your own pace. Throughout the course, you'll acquire essential scholarship skills, including:

- How to identify the best scholarships based on your student's profile

- Tips and best practices for scholarship applications, essays, and projects

- The importance of crafting your student's Personal Narrative, a key element in winning scholarships

Additionally, you will have access to helpful tools such as:

- A scholarship tracking tool preloaded with quick and easy no-essay scholarships for immediate application

- A scholarship checklist template to ensure completion of applications

- An activity log to track your student's volunteer experiences

Now is your last chance to get lifetime access to the Scholarship GPS Course at the introductory rate of just $97.

Soon, the price of Scholarship GPS will more than double! So, don’t delay.

Katia Hua has dedicated her career to the field of education, working in various roles that have equipped her with the knowledge and expertise needed for education consulting. Throughout her professional journey, she has come to recognize the importance of not only guiding students through the college admissions process but also helping them discover their aspirations for the future. That's the major reason why she founded BosonEd.

I recently spoke with Katia about how high school juniors (Class of 2026) should start their college planning now (if they haven’t already). We also discussed some ways that younger students can begin preparing for college, as well.

In our conversation, Katia shared:

• The timeline for standardized tests
• Why she recommends students NOT take the SAT or ACT more than three times
• How a student’s passions, perspectives, and achievements with extracurriculars affect college admissions
• How high school freshmen, sophomores, and juniors should approach participating in extracurricular activities to build an application theme
• A timeline for requesting letters of recommendation
• A timeline for college visits and how to get the most out of them

You can connect with Katia by visiting BosonEd.org.

Also, be sure to read the article Katia referenced in our discussion, “【Case study】What kind of student got into Princeton?'"

Class of 2026:

As Katia said in our discussion, high school juniors need to begin their college planning process right now. That includes planning how to pay for college, including scholarships.

Did you know a FULL RIDE scholarship is open for high school juniors right now?

Did you know that a different scholarship covering full tuition for any college in the country will be opening for juniors this spring?

These are just two of the many scholarship opportunities open to high school juniors.

My son won his first scholarship as a high school junior.

In the Scholarship GPS Course, you will find an interview with a high school junior who won a $35,000 scholarship!

So, while you need to start the college planning that Katia talked about, high school juniors also need to begin the scholarship process.
