Seniors- College Application Time is Now! Please Review the College Application Info Below:

Please note: The Common Application and Naviance are not matched.  If you are applying to a university via the Common Application, you will need to invite your school counselor and teachers via email through the Common Application for letters of recommendation and transcripts to be sent that way.  You will need to mark in Naviance if you are applying through the Common Application if you have the option to do this.  Items cannot be sent unless that is noted.  Please be sure to invite your counselor as the Counselor Recommender so that we can upload your transcripts. Do not invite them as the Other Recommender. Please add your counselor as soon as you begin the Common Application. You do not need your application finished or submitted in order to add them. This gives them time to submit their required portion before your deadline.

For step-by-step instructions on how to request transcripts and letters of recommendations through Naviance (for Non Common Application schools), please see the link below:

Please use the Brag Sheet template below to request letters of recommendation from your counselors/teachers. Please give 2-3 weeks notice, to make sure to ask in person, and to follow up with a Thank You as well.

SENIORS: If you are using the Common Application for college admissions, please invite your counselor on the site. A counselor recommendation is required. Please provide counselors with your Brag Sheet and allow 2 weeks for letters to be written.
