Fall College Application Workshop Registration Form
Advisors meet with students throughout their high school career
to ensure that academic progress is commensurate with their college
and academic goals. College planning begins in earnest during
the freshman year when students, parents and counselors meet to
create a four-year plan that connects course selections with post-graduation
educational and occupational goals. During the senior year, advisors
work closely with students, assisting them in applying to colleges
and universities appropriate for their career interests and academic
performance.
Other benefits of the College Placement
Assistance program include SAT preparation courses offered each
fall and spring, readying students for success on the examination.
In addition, the annual Christian College Fair and other college
fairs allow students and parents to meet with representatives
from prestigious colleges and universities. Weekly lunchtime seminars
give insight for researching undergraduate institutions, writing
applications and succeeding in college. Academic advisors also
assist seniors who seek scholarships, which are available from
a variety of groups to students who meet their specific criteria.
Announcements and advertisements in the daily bulletin remind
students of scholarship or grant opportunities and application
guidelines.
