Wherever you plan to continue your education after high school, as early as possible, visit the institutions website and familiarize yourself with as much information as possible.  Make sure you are, “In the Know” with applying to post-secondary institutions.

Here are some of the things that are necessary for success as you plan for post-secondary opportunities:

• 19-20 Senior Contact Information
• Apply to Universities/Community Colleges/Technical Colleges or any post-secondary institution as soon as possible.
• Know your deadlines-deadlines at Universities exist for things such as Scholarships, Housing, and Orientation Schedule (This is where freshmen schedule their class for the Fall Semester)
• Some Universities have separate scholarship applications; some combine the scholarship application with the admission application-know the difference each school may have a different procedure!!
• University Scholarships-What is the application process? And when is the deadline?
• Local Scholarships-these will be posted on the NISH Website and hard copies will be available in the guidance lobby.
• National Scholarship Search Engines- Fastweb, Scholarships.com
• Educational Talent Search is an informational program, which assists students by helping them to better understand their educational opportunities and options after graduation.  The Educational Talent Search Counselor, Mr. Doffoney, will meet with students once a month to help students in various areas associated with college planning.  There will be a sign up sheet and students must sign up each time to attend the session.  The sign-up sheet is on the counter in guidance at least two weeks before the next meeting.
