School visits are in the fall before school at 7:45-8:15 AM and during select W.I.N. blocks. Check Naviance and daily announcements for days and times for visits.

This week we have:

Tue 10/13 - Villanova University and Elon University

ACT & SAT FEE WAIVER SERVICE

ACT & the CollegeBoard offer a fee waiver service to assist students for whom the payment of fees presents a serious barrier to testing and applying for college admission. To be eligible, a student must apply through their guidance counselor and meet financial eligibility guidelines such as participation in the Federal Free and Reduced Lunch Program or household income eligibility guidelines which your guidance counselor will share with you. Only students in grades 11 and 12 are eligible. The fee waivers do not cover late fees. Families who would like to learn more about fee waivers are encouraged to contact their child’s counselor.
