“Where should I apply? What are they really looking at? How do I prepare ahead of time?”
Navigating college admissions can be overwhelming and full of questions, but we’ve got answers! Join ACT as we team up with Collegewise and learn what admission officers are really looking for. From making the most of your high school experience to researching colleges and ultimately crafting your best application, Collegewise’s expert college application counselors (some of whom are former admission officers) will guide you through every step of the college admissions journey - all while keeping you feeling confident and stress-free through the process.

PSAT for 10th and 11th grade October 4- Be Prepared!
Frisco ISD will administer the PSAT, free of charge, to all 10th and 11th grade students on October 4, 2023. The PSAT helps students identify academic areas of strength and growth, as well as prepare for college entrance exams like the SAT. This is also the qualifying test for the National Merit Scholarship Program for students in 11th grade and the National Recognition Programs for both 10th and 11th grade students.
All 10th and 11th grade students enrolled at Reedy High School are automatically registered for the exam.
Please avoid scheduling appointments for your student on this day as there is no make-up day for this test.
This fall the PSAT/NMSQT will be administered in a new digital format that will provide an overall easier testing experience for students. High school students are encouraged to opt-in to the District’s 1 for All Chromebook program to ensure device compatibility with online testing.
Accommodations in a student’s IEP or Section 504 plan do not automatically apply to College Board exams like the PSAT. Parents must contact Katrina Stroot (strootk@friscoisd.org) submit all required documents by August 11, 2023, if a student needs to add or change accommodations with the College Board’s Services for Students with Disabilities. Additional information can be found on the district website.
Students can access PSAT/NMSQT Study Guide 2023 to prepare.
