College early decision admission announcements are being made this week which take the pressure off some high school students and builds it on others. But all can be OK.

Take advantage of interview days arranged by your journalism department or career services office. In some law and business schools, students have to bid for interviews, “spending” points just to get in to see top recruiters. J-schools make things easier than that, so take advantage of these chances.
