COUNSELING DEPARTMENT
College Financial Planning Night
| December 2
Senior parents are invited to attend a College Financial Planning Information Night on December 2 in the Library. The evening will include two speakers - a financial advisor from Ameriprise Financial Services and a Student Financial Services Counselor from Seattle University. If you have any questions, please contact
Nancy Montstream.
Attention Seniors
If you are submitting college applications over Christmas break that require counselor and teacher letters of recommendation (such as Common App schools!), you must turn in your Letter of Recommendation Request Form to the teachers and counselor
no later than Monday, November 30, 2015. This will give your recommenders time to write and submit your letters before leaving for Christmas break on December 17.
Please meet this deadline if you want your letters of recommendation to be submitted by the break. Otherwise, you will need to wait until school resumes in January to submit a completed application since teachers may not be able to access email and/or Naviance over the holiday break.
Remember to write your teachers and counselor thank you notes if they have written you a letter. Letters take time to write and make a difference when college admissions officers review your applications!
