    Just start doing some research on the internet, through visits, or through people you know and find out some schools you may be interested in. Once you’ve decided on a few, fill out some applications….over the internet is probably the easiest. The school’s website will let you know what things you need to send them, if any. (for example, an essay, etc.)

    Be sure you have some “safety schools” just in case you don’t get into you first choice.

    Make sure you’ve taken the SAT (or something similar) because most schools will ask for those scores.

    Good luck!

    Did you start researching what colleges you want to apply to? You can use http://www.princetonreview.com for some good reviews and other sites like http://www.collegedata.com/ help to find colleges that match your preferences.

    You may also want to talk to your high school guidance counselor who would most likely be willing to help you.
