How to get into the best college for you.
Douglas Christiansen, Vanderbilt University's associate provost for enrollment and dean of admissions, who has spent the last 20 years in admissions leadership roles in both public and private universities, helps clear some of the mystery and misconceptions surrounding the admissions process in this video.
In a series of short and direct video clips, Christiansen tackles questions such as, "How should I prepare for my college essay—what if I'm not the greatest writer?" "My parents have decent jobs, but we haven't saved much for college. What are my chances of getting financial aid?" "As an admissions insider, what tips can you give to help me sound my best in my application?"
Christiansen also talks about when extracurricular activities can actually hurt an applicant and how to ease the stress surrounding the admissions process.

I have a question how about if Im applyin a little late like in mid december should i still apply or my chances are none to get accepted to any college.
I keep on thinking that I would be a sure acceptance to most schools, but I am always hesitant. I started college my Junior year in high school. I had a tough time in high school where my GPA wasn't very good, but my college GPA is amazing. I just feel as if I try my hardest and I am succeeding, but I will never be good enough.
