Senior College Application Steps
Senior College Application Steps
STEP 1: Take the SAT/ACT/THEA and have results sent to the colleges you are considering attending.
This can be done for FREE when you register for ACT/SAT or you can order them for a FEE
at a later date by going online or mailing in a paper form with payment.
SAT:
ACT:
THEA: thea.
STEP 2: Complete your college applications – if the application is available online, colleges prefer
that you submit electronically.
• Apply Texas Application: for public universities in Texas.
• Private School Common Application: for many of the private schools nationwide.
• Most colleges have applications on their website if they are not included on either of the two common applications.
• Pay the application fee to each college for which you are applying.
• Write and submit essay/s for each college that requires them.
• Be aware that on-campus housing (dorms) may have a separate fee, application, and deadline.
• Scholarships may have earlier deadlines. Check with each college to which you apply.
• WATCH OUT FOR APPLICATION DEADLINES AND ALLOW TIME TO GET ALL REQUIRED ITEMS IN BY THE DUE DATE…THE APPLICATION IS ONLY ONE PART OF THE COMPLETED FILE!
STEP 3: Order a transcript from Ms. Hilton in room 1025 for each college to which you
have applied. The first transcript is free and each one after that costs $2.00. WE mail your
transcript so there is no need for a stamped envelope.
• If your college has a form required to be completed by the counselor, give it to Ms.
Hilton when you order the transcript. Be sure that your information is complete as we do not give these back to you when we finish…they are mailed with the transcript.
• If a counselor letter of recommendation is required, give Ms. Hilton your Senior Information Sheet/senior resume/ MAP portfolio when you order the transcript. Counselors need 2 weeks to write letters of recommendation so watch your application deadlines!
NOTE: SAT/ACT/THEA scores are NOT on your high school transcript. We can
copy your testing card which has the SAT/ACT scores if you reported them
to KHS, but many schools WILL NOT accept the copy. If a college informs
you that they need your official scores, see Step 1 above.
STEP 4: If you need letters of recommendation from teachers, arrange that directly with them.
Give them stamped envelopes addressed to each college that you want them to send your
recommendation to (with KHS as the return address, not your home address) as well as a
Senior Information Sheet /senior resume/MAP portfolio.
STEP 5: Stay on top of things! Check your admissions file status online or call an admissions
counselor to verify that your file is complete. If something is missing, and adequate time has
passed for it to arrive, you may need to re-submit it. If you wait until the last minute and find
out something is missing, there won’t be time for the college to process the new information!
