A question about the college search engine in CollegeBoard?

We Answered:

Woody; awards are important. They show initiative and achievement; things that distinguish you from other students. In today's "politically correct" world some schools state they are de-emphasizing certain indicia of accomplishment in favor of diversity. This unfortunate, but in the end colleges still must seek quality students and awards clearly indicate that you are an achiever and a contributor to the student body, team and/or organization.

Don't fret over what is stated in the application, instead focus on presenting the most powerful picture of yourself through the courses you taken, activities you've participated in and the awards you've earned.

Make a list of the schools you'd like to attend and research professors in the areas where you have received an award. Contact them and tell them of your award and of your desire to continue to excel in that field. Engage them and ask what opportunities exist at their college or university to pursue excellence in your chosen field and if there are any awards provided for work projects, etc.

Developing a relationship with a faculty member provides a strong link to that insitutution and you'll likely be able to get a letter of recommendation from them when the time comes.

Good luck!

I am looking for a good College Search Engine?

. I can't imagine that I/we could find something for you that you haven't already discovered! ...and rejected. I imagine you've Googled 'Marine Biology" and 'match colleges' or something similar.
Maybe you can go right to the source, the places that employ your speciality? Of course Woods Hole comes to mind @ http://jobs.whoi.edu/ ; "... (508)289-2253 " .
How about a marine bio 'Bulletin Board' @ http://mb.sparknotes.com/mb.epl?r=1&b=18… . THEY would have more answers than Yahoo!
"...Biological scientists held about 77,000 jobs in 2004. Slightly more than half of all biological scientists were employed by Federal, State, and local governments. Federal biological scientists worked mainly for the U.S. Departments of Agriculture, Interior, and Defense and for the National Institutes of Health. Most of the rest worked in scientific research and testing laboratories, the pharmaceutical and medicine manufacturing industry, or hospitals. "
