April Checklist

Seniors, take a look at the list below to help you stay on top of your monthly tasks. Reach out to the UB Staff if you have any questions and keep us updated on your college acceptances so that we can walk you through the next steps!

Check Your Email and College Portals At Least Once a Week

  *   Make sure you don’t miss deadlines, admissions information, or other important correspondence.
If You're a Student on the Waitlist...

  *   Ensure that you're on top of communications with the school and submit all requested information.
Review Your Financial Aid Packages From Colleges

  *    Some schools will release financial aid award letters this month. Discuss them with your parents, school counselor, and UB staff.
Plan a Visit or Virtual Tour

  *   If you are still on the fence about which school you should attend, consider making another round of college visits. Some colleges are now giving in-person tours to incoming students. There are also virtual tours you can take online.
Apply for Housing

  *   Apply for housing at the school you plan to attend, if you’ve already made that decision.
Continue Applying for Scholarships

  *   Check in with your school counselor for local scholarships and check out the ones in our scholarship section.
Study for AP Tests and Stay on top of Classwork

  *   AP Exams are right around the corner! Remember: colleges will request your final transcripts so don't slack off on any of your classes.
