High School Seniors Do the Darndest Things

Posting loyalty to one college on Facebook while all the other colleges on your wish list are watching. I promise you Big Data knows your college choices. Do yourself a favor and clean up your Facebook!

Allowing pictures to be taken at a party during what appears to be beer pong, and expecting us to know there’s Pepsi in your cup. Do yourself a favor and clean up your Facebook!

Taking selfies while driving with your cat on your lap. Do yourself a favor and stop taking selfies with the cat on your lap!

Letting your parents call the admission offices. A lot. Do yourself a favor and stop giving up your power!

Grade grubbing on your AP Gov tests and then asking the same teacher to write your college recommendation. The high school teacher is a sensitive animal—easily ticked off! Do yourself a favor and calm down about the two points. They’ll come back to bite you.
