Don't Catch the Senioritis Bug

May 1 is a day to celebrate. For many schools, it's the deposit deadline for accepting your college admissions offer, and so you might be tempted to think it's also the end of your college application marathon.

ALMOST.

Even after you have put down your deposit, you still have obligations you must meet in order to keep that spot in the incoming class. Plunking down money isn't the only hoop you have to jump through. (Although it's an important one. DO NOT MISS THE DEPOSIT DEADLINE. Seriously.)

You will also have to submit your final Senior year transcript when the time comes. And if you've slacked off or gotten into disciplinary trouble, that can cause problems, and might even result in your offer being revoked. And then you lose your spot. Oof. That can and does happen and it's heartbreaking. Don't let that be you.

Same goes for any other kind of conduct disclosure, like run-ins with the law. Keep your record clean. If you already had legal issues to disclose, don't go out and create new ones.

You've made it this far. Keep up the good work!

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
