You're invited to next Tuesday's College Search & Selective College Admissions presentation by the SWHS Counseling department. This presentation will focus on secondary factors for admission (essay, letters of recommendation, activities), selective college admissions, and a behind-the-scenes look a the admissions process. The presentation will begin at 7:00pm in the Commons/Lunchroom on Tuesday, March 21st.
This presentation is the 2nd part of our 2-part College Search curriculum with juniors and families. The first College Search presentation, "Starting the College Search" took place at the Passport College Workshops on October 1, 2016.
If you'd like to review that information, the presentation is attached. "Starting the College Search" and other October 1 presentations can also be found at the SWHS Counseling Archived Presentations link here: http://southwest.mpls.k12.mn.us/2016-2017_2.html
Counselors/Coordinators will present highlights from "Starting the College Search" presentation at 6:30pm on Tuesday, March 21st in the Commons/Lunchroom prior to the main presentation for anyone who missed or would like a reminder of October's presentation.
In this presentation and the presentation for Seniors and families coming up this fall, we will reference Naviance, our online-based software program to assist students with post-secondary planning including college seach, college lists, college applications, career interests and exploration, scholarships and more.
Parent/Guardians: If you have not already registered for the parent/guardian account in Naviance, please keep an eye out for an email with your specific, individual registration code and instructions for getting started on Naviance. These emails should be sent within the upcoming week, prior to next Tuesday's presentation.
We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday, March 21st!
Thanks,
Your SWHS Counselors and CCC Coordinators
