College-Related Vocabulary and Terminology

There are certainly a lot of terms tossed around -- including many used in this tutorial -- so, here's some help.

Applying to college includes it own set of terminology and lingo -- from accreditation to FAFSA to early action to work-study -- with lots more we have not even discussed in this tutorial, but which are part of the college dialogue.

As we have encouraged you to do throughout the tutorial, if you need help with a term mentioned on these pages, please go to our High School College-Bound and College Planning Glossary to find the answers.

CONGRATULATIONS! This page marks the end of the College Planning Tutorial. We hope it's raised your awareness and understanding of all aspects of applying to college -- and finding the resources to pay for it.
