Spring Break

Spring break is almost here!  I know spring break is for rest and relaxation (and hopefully some studying, too!)  Spring break is also a great time to tackle many tasks on your college to-do list.  Here are some helpful hints on what you can be doing over spring break:

Seniors:

• If you haven't yet already, fill out your financial aid paperwork at fafsa.ed.gov
• Visit your top colleges (be sure to register for campus tours well in advance)
• Check out our scholarship guide and apply for scholarships
• Browse college websites to help narrow down your options

Juniors:

• Register for the SAT (talk to your counselor first if you get free/reduced lunch)
• Register for the ACT (talk to your counselor first if you get free/reduced lunch)
• Continue researching potential college choices
• Figure out which colleges you want to speak with at the College Fair on April 27th
• Make an appointment with College and Career Center to begin preparing for next year

Freshman and Sophomores:

• Begin browsing colleges (hint: check out the College and Career Center's collection of brochures)
• Figure out which colleges you want to speak with at the College Fair on April 27th

• Bring your completed application with you on Wednesday.
• You do NOT need to bring any money.  The application fee is waived if you participate in the Admission Day.
