Once again, UCLA and the UC system received a record number of freshman applications for Fall 2018 admissions.

Beginning in spring for the SAT and in September for the ACT, students using fee waivers for their tests will be able to send more score reports without charge to their colleges.

There are lots of summer enrichment programs out there and I always prefer the ones where students are selected by a competitive application process that includes transcripts, test scores (if available), letters of recommendation, and essays. Here is one highly selective program with an early application deadline of January 12, 2018. I will post more information about other programs in the next couple of months, but check out this one at MIT.
