Mrs. Aisenbrey will help with college applications if you wish.

• Update your Activities Resume – it will be helpful when you start filling out college applications.

• Retake the SAT/ACT in the fall IF you are willing to put in some prep time (re-taking does not raise scores unless you study).

• Apply as early as possible – many applications are now available online.  You will greatly relieve your stress level if you try to have all your applications done by November 1.

• Decide on which teachers/staff you will ask for Letters of Recommendation.  Do not wait until the last minute to ask if you want a well-written, thoughtful recommendation. 

• Complete a Transcript Request Form and give it to Mrs. Aisenbrey in order to obtain official transcripts to accompany your application.

• Ask Miss Austin or Mrs. Aisenbrey to proofread your application essay before you send it.

• Keep your grades up – colleges always reserve the right to withdraw offers of admission or scholarships if grades drop significantly.

• Please let Mrs. Aisenbrey know when you are accepted to college or receive any scholarships – your info will be posted on the College Acceptance page.
