Mark Greenstein discusses a variety of common questions about visiting colleges. When is the best time to make the trip? Should interested younger siblings come, too? And when might a visit not be productive?
Many colleges make the award automatic based on a combination of SAT (or ACT) and GPA. Merit-based scholarships range from $500 to $200,000. Our students seeking scholarships report an average award exceeding $70,000 over four years.
For all students studying for the SAT and ACT, we have some advice: Don’t wait to sign up! Whether it’s your target or practice test date, delaying until close to the deadline could get you shunted to a faraway test center. To avoid the unnecessary stress before test day, make sure to sign up well in advance.
Ivy Bound was originally founded with a desire to give students the best SAT test prep in the area. Since 2001, Mark Greenstein’s company has evolved into one of the premier test prep and tutoring firms in New England, helping students succeed on the ACT, AP Exams, Graduate School Exams and much more. While we guarantee SAT score increases, we also encourage students to strive for merit scholarships based on test performance.
