Last Night's Teleseminar - In Case You Missed It

uSphere had a lot of questions from folks who couldn't make the teleseminar last night, featuring my good friend and college planning consultant Paul Hemphill. Well, it was a great show, Paul's a great speaker, and we've actually archived the audio.

You can click here to get the teleseminar audio replay.

Given the success of this event -- feedback was outstanding! -- we're imagining that this won't be the last time we have one of these events.

Apply in July? Is it too early?

One neato Midwestern school thinks July is the right time.

Millikin University, Decatur, Illinois suggests you should apply in July...

"Because you don't want to worry about filling out applications when practice starts. Or rehearsals. Or finals. Or Thanksgiving and Christmas."

That's from the official Apply in July facebook page.

Makes your Senior Year of High School a little easier to stomach if you've already got at least one application out of the way.
