FAFSA Information
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) is an application through the federal government for scholarships, grants, and loans. Even if you have other scholarships, grants, or loans this is a good opportunity to see if you qualify. You do not have to repay scholarships and grants, so there is a potential to receive more money for college if you apply. The FAFSA is awarded to students on a first come, first served basis, so it is important to apply as soon as possible. Please call your guidance counselor or stop by the guidance office if you have any questions. Apply on the FAFSA website.
Official Transcripts
When completing college applications, students must request to have an official transcript sent to their college(s) of choice. Please request transcripts in writing at the registrar's office. We recommend that students provide addresses for out of state colleges and universities if applicable.
AP, Dual Credit & ATC
If your student has taken an AP, Dual Enrollment, or community college course while in high school, check out the site to assist you in knowing exactly how those courses will transfer to the school of your choice.
