This website provides practical advice and lessons learned by high school seniors and college students who have made it to college.


Some of these student “experts” are the first in their family to attend college. Others have college in their family background—but it’s still a stretch, filled with hopes and hurdles. In either case. they have lots to pass on about going to college.


Here we share their personal stories and tips, along with videos they have co-produced and planning checklists they have helped create. We share, too, the resources they have found most helpful.


For college advisors, there’s a special section with downloads and resources. For parents, there’s a glossary of college terms in English and Spanish.
