Find a Mentor

• Meet with your counselor to confirm that you are on track with the classes you will need to apply for college.
• Continue to get to know your teachers, counselors and coaches — they can be a huge help on the road to college. They are great advisors and they are often willing to write letters of recommendation.
• Find someone who is doing the job you want for a career and get to know them. These people can offer you advice about how to go about achieving your dreams, in addition to helping you get a realistic understanding of what the job is really like. (Campus job fairs are a good place to make these connections.)
