College Information

College visits are strongly suggested throughout your high school career, especially for upperclassmen.  Hopefully, from those visits, students and families will have a good idea of what schools to apply to during senior year.  Many schools have application deadlines in the fall, so we suggest that you make a majority of your college visits before senior year.  Click here for a list of questions and considerations that you may want to review before setting up and attending a college visit.  

There are many places to go online to get helpful college information.  Listed below are some websites that have helpful and well-organized information for students in the search for a college.
