Check out these 35 important steps that every high school student should take on their road to college. Steps are grouped by the year of high school in which students should be completing each step.

This is a step-by-step guide through each year of high school, helping students and families get and stay on the right path on their journey from high school to college. Tina Clifton Canedo is a proud mom of three who has traveled this path herself and also with her three children.

Tina knows all too well, the curves in the road and the challenge of keeping students on track as they make their way through high school and to college. Getting a late start? No worries! You can quickly work your way through the steps you've missed to get on track easily.

Also, keep in mind, this is a guide and not a list of hard rules. At the end of the day, you need to do what is best for you and your family.

Feel free to skip the steps that don't work for you, complete steps out of order, or add your own steps to the roadmap. .

The important thing is that you get to where you want to go!. .
