Facebook probably has more to do with college admissions than most students realize. In fact, it has changed college admissions in many ways. Students can connect with colleges and universities on Facebook as never before, and colleges can find out a lot of personal information about potential college applicants that more than likely will not be on their applications. High school students need to clean up their Facebook pages so that there are no revealing, inappropriate comments or photos that could hurt their chances for getting into college. If it is something that you would not post on your refrigerator for the family to see, it probably isn't something that should be on your Facebook pages.
