College Application Tips:

It is that time of year when seniors should be completing college applications. In many cases, the application is the only opportunity or means the student has of making a positive impression on admissions personnel. With that in mind, we would like to make the following suggestions:

  1. Read all directions before beginning.
  2. Read notes in the margins.
  3. Be NEAT.
  4. Type or use black ink.
  5. Make requests for letters of recommendation at least one week in advance.
  6. Check to see if SAT/ACT scores must be provided directly from the testing organization.
  7. WHEN COMPLETED, submit all necessary materials (checks, application, etc.) to the guidance office. Allow one week for processing.
  8. It is in the best interest of the student to complete applications as early in the school year as possible.
  9. No applications are accepted in the guidance office in the week prior to the Christmas holiday.
