A completely free resource for planning campus visits and making the most of the college search
Campus Visits
Many universities have special days set aside for high school students to come visit their campus with family and experience a small part of college life.
Seniors are allowed 2 college days (excused absences). See Mr. Bounds for a form BEFORE you take a college day.
Lunch Visits
Every month college recruiters/military recruiters come to our school for lunch visits. This means they will set up a table outside the cafeteria for students to ask questions and receive free information for their future.

WHAT IS FAFSA?
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is the application you will use to apply for federal student aid programs offered by the U.S. Department of Education (ED). Filling out the FAFSA is free and gives you access to the largest source of financial aid to help pay for college.
Many states and colleges use your FAFSA data to determine your eligibility for state aid and school aid.
Almost all students and families complete the FAFSA online at the FAFSFA website here: FAFSA Website
In addition to the online form, you have two other options for completing the FAFSA:
We strongly encourage you to complete your FAFSA as soon as possible. Some states have limited financial aid funds. Funds will be distributed on a "first-come, first-served" basis. SO, APPLY NOW! DON'T WAIT!
