You can also reach the financial aid professionals at Centralia College and we will also be having workshops & information sessions.  Please be watching for additional details

COLLEGE DEADLINES:    

Deadlines are critical.  Please make sure you are planning ahead.  I have made a quick reference sheet for Washington Public Universities.  Of course you may be applying to other colleges, but hopefully this will be a helpful start.  Click here 

SAT/ACT

The COVID-19 pandemic has created a lot of change for the college process and in particular to the requirement for SAT/ACT test scores.  More and more colleges have announced they are moving to a test-optional policy.  However, each college is different.  You MUST check with the specific college.  I have listed SAT/ACT info for WA public colleges on the College Deadline Sheet for reference.
