In their Junior year all students will receive and review a college planning packet in English 11 class. Students should have taken the SAT/ACT by the end of their junior year, distributed their teacher recommendation sheets, and completed a list of campuses they would like to learn more about. Many students will be finishing up their campus visits that summer. If you need an additional packet or more information, please access the sights below.
In their Senior year all students will begin applying to college in the beginning of October. SUNY applications will be available in the guidance office, private school applications will need to be obtained by the student directly from the private college. Once the application is complete, attach the application fee and remember to sign the form. Bring the completed application to the guidance office and we will attach a transcript, teacher recommendations, a counselor recommendation, SAT/ACT scores, and mail the complete packet for you.
