What are some good colleges?

Question:hi im 12 and i want to get a scholarship to a good college when im older. i have had high honor roll for two years, an award for creative writing, and an award from the president for academic exellence. but since its only grade school, will it help me later on when i look into scholarships?

people always ask me what college i want to go to, but i have no clue. im interested in writing and poetry, and want to be an author. i am planning on getting a book published soon. what do i need to do to qualify for a scholarship? how do i prepare for it? and what are some good colleges to look into?

Answers:
Wow- 12 years old thinking about college, huh? Most people aren't thinking about college until their late teens and even early to mid 20's. Ivy leagues are supposedly the "best". And its a fact that they have the most money. Colleges like Harvard, Princeton, and Yale. UCLA is also a good school. It might help to see what state you're in, because that way you can see where you can go as an in-state resident, which is important if money is at all an issue. I'm sorry I can't help you on getting the scholarships. I know fasttrack.com is a good place to see. Best of luck-
honey NOTHING you do matters until high school. its a harsh reality. but at least ur parents are proud of you.

u should go to harvard., stanford, princeton.
UCLA!
touro LOL i'm kidding but brooklyn college is great!!
obviously NYU is the best, its the same value as Harvard btw...
USC! But seriously if you do decide to go to an ivy league school, you will have to have your grades close to perfect and ace the SATs. you'd have a better chance of getting a scholarship at a State college or maybey a University. When the time comes I'm sure your counselors can help you apply for scholarships or finantial aid. If you do well in Jr. High, chances are you will have a better chance at doing well in High School and with good grades in High School (3.5 and Higher) you will be a shoe in for college. Also keep involved in school clubs and activities or sports, it looks good to colleges.
