Representatives from Azusa Pacific University will offer on the spot admission decisions to seniors who apply on this day. Seniors need to reserve your space in the counseling office and alert their 5th period teacher that they have signed up. Then, they need to go to the periodicals room of the library with their chrome book that day. They should be ready to include their social security number in the application.

Keep an eye on this space! We will have lots of information on college applications,

financial aid, webinars, workshops, etc. as our new school year gets underway.
