Apply to as many colleges as you want, but they each have application fees. make sure that you qualify for the ones you apply so you do not waste money. Look up the schools websites to get the admission packet. You can go to the library or the bookstore to get the Princeton review of colleges to help you get a rough idea about the schools.
Hopefully you have taken the SAT, if not sign up ASAP to take the next one (probably in the fall). you will need to give them a list of schools to send your results.
Each school has admission deadlines. If they do not, November 15th is a good date to keep in mind.
Fastweb is a great site, but do not let it be your only source. research your town. Many groups like Rotary, Lions, AAUW, and others give scholarships to local kids. Also if your parents went to college somewhere you may want to go, many schools offer legacy scholarships.
Read each school financial aid info when you apply. You often have to submit financial applications BEFORE you get acceptance letters.
Avoid student loans if you can. Depending on your financial situation, you may need to, but go with all other options first -- scholarships, grants, go with government loans first, then private.
