Conferencing: We are meeting with EVERY freshman student during Trimester 1 & EVERY junior in Trimester 2. Parents/Guardians are welcome to be part of their child's conference. Invitations will be sent via email for instructions on how/when to sign up.
College Applications: Application time ranges from August 1 thru spring. Be careful to watch application close dates posted by your college of choice. Not all colleges have the same application time period. The UW applications is linked here at UW Application. Wisconsin Technical College applications are here at Technical College Applications. OR the Common Application can be located at commonapp.org.
ACT: The American College Test is needed for most college acceptance. The ACT is given seven times a year in the state of Wisconsin. September thru July. At WDP we feel the best time for a junior to take the official ACT is with the state assessment in February/March. No need to apply unless you are taking an additional ACT. See application and dates here.
