I am currently a sophomore. When should I contact my Blue and Gold Officer?
As a BGO, there are several opportunities to meet me, school college nights and info sessions. I am happy to speak to you in length after one of the prior mentioned events. I have a job and responsibilities and may not have time to have coffee with you but I can answer emails or arrange a phone call starting your freshman year.I'm a Blue and Gold Officer and I'm glad to talk/meet with candidates well before Junior Year. It can give a candidate time to get properly set up with classes, PSAT/SAT, activities,etc. One of the saddest things that I deal with as a BGO is meeting a candidate in the middle of the fall of their junior year and they have just taken the SAT for the first time, haven't done a sport or other issues that set them behind many other candidates. I can't count the number of times I've had a Junior tell me that their counselor advised them to start taking the SAT (for the first time) after they get Junior Year PSAT results.
My main reason for reaching out to my BGO as a sophomore was for the reason that I wanted to know them more as a person and form a bond.
