APPLICATIONS TRANSCRIPT ORDERING - for Graduating Students 2011

[Image:2252009_103036_3.png]The guidance office and front office need a minimum of 10 school days to prepare a
transcript and process your applications - this includes transcript requests for scholarships as well.
                                                
                        *WATCH YOUR APPLICATION DEADLINES*




NOTE: For all other Transcripts scroll down to the bottom for more information under:
                            Transcript Request - past students




        [Image:9152009_32843_0.png]SENIOR BOYS:  All young men must register with the Selective Service System within 30 days of reaching their 18th birthday.  Failure to do so may result in losing the opportunity to receive student loans, to participate in federal job training and to hold a federal job.  One of the first questions on the Financial Aid Form asks if you have registered for Selective Service.  
You may register at your local post office or online at [ http://www.sss.gov ]www.sss.gov.
        
         [Image:9172009_21739_0.png]          EARLY DECISION/ACTION and/or SERVICE ACADEMY APPLICATIONS

or to an early action, early decision or early notification program at any college, please make an
appointment to see your counselor NOW.

[Image:462009_113205_5.png]                                                  COLLEGE ESSAY

It is not too early to start to think about essays.  Take a look at an old application and see what questions were
asked.  Start writing some rough drafts.  If next year's essay questions are not exactly the same, you can usually
incorporate some of what you have already prepared. (Spending the fall of your senior year stressing over
essays is definately not the way to go.)




                                                                                       ACTIVITY RESUME

[Image:462009_113849_6.png]
Another fun project is working on a resume of your high school activities.  Since most college applications
ask for a list of your high school activities, church or community projects and employment, get on the
computer and prepare a one or two page resume including any offices or leadership positions you held.
Make it neat and proofread it.  It will be a timesaver in the fall.

In WHY Do They Act That Way? nationally renowned, award-winning
psychologist Dr. David Walsh explains exactly what happens to the human
brain on the path from childhood into adolescence and adulthood.
Revealing the latest scientific findings in easy-to-understand terms, Dr. Walsh
shows why moodiness, quickness to anger and to take risks, miscommunication,
fatigue, territoriality, and other familiar teenage behavior problems are so
common — all are linked to physical changes and growth in the adolescent brain.
