ACT/SAT and Smarter College Planning Strategies (For College-bound Students and their Parents/Caregivers - Virtual Event)
REGISTRATION REQUIRED
Monday, September 28
6:30pm - 7:30pm
Join Heidi King to learn about 2026 changes to the ACT and SAT, plus new strategies to be admitted to colleges and maximize scholarships.
The college admission landscape continues to evolve and is more complex than ever. Shifting ACT/SAT testing requirements, new ACT/SAT testing formats, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act federal loan limits, and increased selectivity across schools and majors make it hard for families to identify the right-fit schools and apply successfully.
Challenges include:
-
Changes to admission trends around how colleges admit students
-
ACT/SAT testing trends for admission and merit
-
How to avoid FAFSA mistakes that may make college more expensive
-
How to stand out as your authentic self
-
Right-fit and how to find it
Join college expert Heidi King from College Inside Track to learn how these changes may impact your family, and how to leverage new strategies to give your student the best opportunity for admission and to maximize scholarships and financial aid.
