You can use apps to order food, watch sports, keep up with friends, and even study for the ACT. ACT apps are a somewhat recent phenomenon, but they're pretty appealing. After all, studying on your phone sounds like way more fun than studying from a book. Even though apps are not enough to prepare you for the test on their own, they can be a helpful resource.

Deciding upon and getting into college is such a long, all-consuming process that when you finally receive your acceptance it can feel a bit surreal. A college acceptance can bring about all sorts of emotions. Joy, of course, but also anxiety and doubt. Many of us experience “imposter syndrome” following an acceptance.

Legacy admissions faced criticism before the Supreme Court banned affirmative action, and scrutiny has intensified since that ruling.
