College Application Camp
Dear Juniors and Junior Families,
We are pleased to announce that we will be offering a college application camp for students this summer with the goal of helping them get a jump start on the college application process. Though the camp will focus heavily on the Common Application, other college applications can be accommodated.
Students who participate will accomplish the following tasks:
- Create a Common Application account
- Learn how to navigate the Common Application website and Naviance Student
- Start and potentially complete the Common Application (with the exception of the writing section)
- Become familiar with the writing prompts and receive tips on drafting the college essay
- Learn how to link their Common Application account with their Naviance Student account (this is necessary in order for us to send their transcripts electronically to colleges)
- Learn about the process for requesting transcripts and letters of recommendation
- Create an organizational spreadsheet that will include important deadlines, contact information, and testing policies for prospective colleges
This is a free opportunity, but space is limited. Students should be prepared to be engaged and productive during the session they plan to attend. The dates and times of the sessions are listed below.
Wednesday, June 12th 8:30am-10:30am
Wednesday, June 12th 11:00am-1:00pm

Help us to recognize and believe in your presence so that we may have the courage to share your peace with all the world.
