ACT INFORMATION
If you are wishing to improve your ACT score, it is important to register early in the school year. Scores can take 6-8 weeks to get back and you want to get them back before you apply to colleges.
COMMON APP INFORMATION
The CommonApp is now open. This is the easiest way to apply to lots of colleges at once. Make sure you add Mrs. Nelson as your counselor so we can upload your transcripts and information. If your college requires recommendations add your recommenders early so they have time to upload your letter.
