Thinking About College?

It's never too soon to start thinking about college. If you believe you might someday want to go, here are a few websites to get you started.

KnowHow2Go: The Four Steps to College is a great starting place if you're not sure where to go or how to get the money for school. It has links for middle schoolers and high schoolers, and even a quiz to find out how much you already know about getting into college.

College.gov has lots of good information, including descriptions of the different kinds of colleges out there, online resources to help you pick the best school for your needs, and what you need to know about scholarships, grants, and loans.

How much does a farmer make? How about a secretary, or a lawyer? Find out what your earning potential might be at the Bureau of Labor Statistics website. Learn what kind of training you'll need, what will likely happen with that kind of position in the future, and what it really means to do that job.
