Receiving a college acceptance letter is one of the most exciting parts of being a high school senior and we want to capture that excitement!  Our #MyFuture Sweepstakes is encouraging high school seniors to post a photo or video with their acceptance letter to GAcollege411’s Facebook or Twitter pages. The winning posts will receive iPads – the perfect tool for college-bound students. All students have to do is like/follow us and post using the hashtag #MyFuture and tagging @GAcollege411!
