To Add colleges - University/Search/click on the heart to add to "considering" list

IN MAIA LEARNING :

Click on the college name - the categories are:

Overview/Community/Admission/Analysis/Essays/Degrees and Majors/Varsity Sports/Cost

Click on the “Cost” tab to see the tuition cost of that college.
The Analysis tab will show Campolindo Admissions stats from previous admissions cycles. Use directionally. Colleges use holistic review for applicants and the scattergrams only show GPA/Test Score. You CANNOT see the rigor of schedule (i.e, number of AP courses, college courses taken), students accepted major, and the “context” of their story through essays.

College Visits & Academy

For the latest College Visits, Academy and other College & Career Center Events, click on Upcoming Events on CCC website, go to MaiaLerning/Events or read the weekly Parents Club Bulletin.

How to Sign up for events:

- For College Visits: Go to MaiaLearning under "EVENTS" and sign up.
- For Academy: Go to Teachmore/College & Career
- For other events (i.e, College Fairs, Financial Aid Webinars, etc) follow the specific directions for sign up.

Both College Visits and Academy are limited to 25 students. College Visits are being added weekly so keep checking back for the latest list of schools.

STUDENTS: For College Visits - You MUST pick up a pass in CCC at least 2 days prior to the college visit and have it signed by your teacher. Visits are only 30 minutes and are a great way to meet the admission counselor reading your application and be able to ask your questions. If you cannot leave class due to test/quiz/other important classwork, please let me know and I can grab materials for you.

The numbers of hours is not as important as the impact you have your community and what you learn from the experience. Need more support - set up a 1:1 appointment with a College and Career Advisor to brainstorm ideas and better understand how colleges view volunteer work in context of your whole application.
