~ COLLEGE and CAREER Info ~

College:

1. Application advise:

• Seniors planning to attend a 4-year college are urged to apply by November 1 (several schools have November 1 or December 1 scholarship deadlines)

• ASK if there is a separate financial aid / scholarship application (you should try to get as many scholarships and grants as possible)

• GIVE DETAILS!

i. don’t just say you’re a member of a club, tell what you do in that club

ii. describe your service hours

iii. if the application doesn’t allow you to give details, mail a letter requesting it be added to your file

iv. If the admission process is competitive, submit 1-2 letters of recommendation (employer, advisor, teacher, alumni)

• OBEY DEADLINES

• Let Mrs. Kaiser know when you have completed/submitted your application so she can mail your transcript to the university.

2. College Essays: Many colleges require an essay for admission and/or scholarship consideration. Here is some helpful advice:

• Ask an admissions representative HOW the essays are used (and judged). Will your essay be used for placement into an English course? Used holistically in the admission decision?

• Write about something personal: a challenge you have faced, someone or something that has had an impact on your life, etc.

• Have someone proofread and critique your essay.

• Keep in mind that the people reviewing your essay read thousands of them. Make sure yours is interesting and will be unique!

• Your essays are important in the decision-making process!

3. DID YOU KNOW…

• Heidelberg University offers a TUITION FREE Master of Business (MBA) for students who complete their bachelor’s degree at Heidelberg (any major) in four years and earn a cumulative GPA of 3.0 or higher. This could save you over $28.000!

• Colleges can rescind your admission in the summer of your senior year. This means that simply getting accepted now doesn’t guarantee that you can attend next fall. Colleges DO look at your final senior grades and can revoke your acceptance, so keep working hard!

4. FRHS students who are applying to college should indicate that they are a new student (incoming freshman) regardless of PSEO/CC+ credits earned. You are NOT considered a transfer student.

5. College Presentations at FRHS (grades 11-12): Several College/University/Military Representatives are coming this fall. Juniors and Seniors should check the calendar outside the guidance office (or on the school website) for upcoming visits. (sign up at least two days prior)

6. Upcoming COLLEGE FAIRS:

• John Jay Center College-Career-Connect Event (Portland, IN): October 7 from 4:30-7:30 p.m. Over 15 colleges, financial aid presentations, and much more! Students will be eligible to win door prizes. Call Debbie Howell for more information at 260-729-5525.

• Students with Learning Differences: a college fair will be held at Gahanna Lincoln High School (Columbus Area) on October 7 from 6:30-8 p.m.

• Edison Community College Fair: November 4 from 12:30-2:00 p.m. in Piqua, OH. RSVP to craterman@edisonohio.edu

7. Many Colleges hold Fall Open Houses --many on Saturdays. (Mrs. K emailed a complete list to all juniors/seniors on September 24.) Check out the displays by the guidance office, visit the college website, or see Mrs. Kaiser for specific dates. (Here are just a few…)

• Ohio State Lima Tailgate/Open House: October 9, October 30 (see hallways poster for details)

• Bowling Green: October 31, December 5, February 15

• University of Dayton: October 18, and November 22 register online at admission.udayton.edu/openhouse

8. Catalogs are available in the guidance office that highlight ALL of Ohio’s 2-Year, Private and Public Colleges. These books are excellent resources for students to make comparisons between schools….they let you know enrollment, tuition rates, admission policies and fees, locations, and much, much more! These catalogs can also be accessed online:

• Ohio’s Public Universities:

• Ohio’s Private Colleges and Universities: (click on “resources”, then “Counselor’s Guide”)

• Ohio’s Two-Year Colleges: (click on “resources”, “publications”, then scroll down to “A Guide to Ohio’s Two-Year colleges”)

• You can also find information on non-Ohio colleges via or

9. Public or Private College? Keep all of your options open, and don’t rule out Private Colleges based on the cost! In many cases, you can afford the tuition…apply for the scholarships and grants available to you. Sometimes, you can attend a private school for the same price as a public one! Studies show that students who attend private colleges often graduate 1-2 years earlier than those who attend public colleges.

10. Notes about a few of Ohio’s public universities:

• Students planning to attend UC must apply by December 1 to be eligible for their full-range of scholarships.

• UC, OSU and Miami do not accept test scores on student transcripts; scores must be received directly from the testing company (i.e. ACT). Most others prefer the scores are sent directly.

• The writing portion of the ACT/SAT is required for admission to UC and OSU, as well as several private colleges.

• Again, check the email Mrs. K sent to you on 9-24-15 for more details.

11. John Jay Center for Learning (affiliated with Ivy Tech State College and Indiana Wesleyan) in Portland, IN offers beginning-level college courses at a very reasonable cost Call 260-729-5525.

12. Prospective College Athletes who plan to play Division I or II sports must register with the appropriate clearinghouse. Both eligibility centers require that test scores (i.e. ACT) be sent directly from the testing agency. See Mrs. Kaiser if you need to register with either of these athletic clearinghouses because I need to mail your transcript to them! Cost is approximately $75.

• NCAA Clearinghouse: new website-- playcollegesports

• NAIA: .

13. Seniors interested in applying to Miami University:

• The fall 2016 Early Decision application deadline is November 15; Students should note that Early Decision is binding. Applicants must contractually agree to withdraw all applications to other colleges and attend Miami if accepted.

• The Early Action deadline for fall 2016 admission is December 1. Priority consideration for admission, merit scholarships, and selection for the University Academic Scholars Program, the University Honors Program, and other competitive admission programs will be given to students completing all application requirements by December 1, 2015.

• The Regular Decision deadline is February 1, 2016.

• Miami University Access Initiative: Miami University will provide FREE tuition and fees for all new first-year students from Ohio entering the Oxford campus that has family incomes of less than $35,000. The program will continue to provide tuition and fees for eligible students for up to four years.

14. Several Colleges offer FREE (or reduced) tuition for students who meet low income qualifications (like the Miami U Access Initiative). YOU need to ASK the college (or check their financial aid site) if they have such a program. Don’t be afraid to apply to your dream school!

15. Seniors interested in applying to Ohio State:

• Apply by November 1 for the best chance at scholarships, honors, and scholars programs (all applicants who apply my November 1 will be considered Early Action by default). Applications are reviewed as they come in, and OSU uses the ACT score you have at that time for their application decision. So, if your ACT is low, you may want to apply after you receive a better score.

• Students interested in attending the Columbus campus should use the Common Application (the link is available via OSU’s website). Lima campus students do not need to complete the Common App—you can use OSU Lima’s simplified application.

• ACT (or SAT) scores must be sent directly to OSU from the testing company. The writing test is required.

• You need to submit at least 1 letter of recommendation when applying (max of 3)

• There are 3 admission decisions: admit, deferred, deny

i. If deferred, only academic updates should be submitted (new grades, ACT, etc.) for review

ii. If denied, there is no need to submit new any additional information. The decision is final.

• Engineering students should apply by November 1.

• Beginning in Autumn 2015, all Columbus students will be required to live on campus for 2 years

• The Honors program is for students who wish to be pushed academically and have an interest in research

• The Scholars program is for students who want to reside with other scholars students who share their same interests

• The Morrill Scholars program is open to students who work with a diverse population (church programs, mission work, ESL tutor, etc.) you need not be a minority to apply
