Colleges
Many colleges are also dealing with closures and have been evaluating their procedures and timelines. This is a rapidly changing situation, and the best way to obtain accurate information about an individual college will be to reach out to that college directly via their webpage or Admissions Office. If any senior needs a transcript sent during this closure, please e-mail the appropriate counselor (as previously noted). For students who have not yet completed the Financial Aid Process, please attempt to do so as-soon-as-possible, at the FAFSA website.
The Junior Search for a College Night, originally scheduled for March 26, has been postponed indefinitely. A copy of the PowerPoint Presentation and a copy of the College & Career Workbook will be posted on the Pupil Support Office Website. Students and families should monitor the College Board’s SAT website and the ACT website for information about upcoming tests.
Any students or families who may have questions regarding any aspect of the college process should contact the appropriate counselor (as previously noted).
