College Application Workshops and Informational Session at Heritage Gateway Sign Up Here
**EXCITING NEWS**College Application Workshops and Informational Session Sign Up Sheet
We have a full line up of college representatives coming to Heritage Academy Gateway in September to help our Senior scholars apply to colleges across the valley and out-of-state. Please use the link below to sign up for as many application workshops and informational sessions you would like to attend. I’m still waiting to hear back from the University of Arizona, but will add them as I lock down a date.
Please Note:
- All workshops and informational sessions are being held in the computer lab during lunch and Citizenship (11:15 – 12:15)
- You must sign up to attend a workshop and be excused from your Citizenship class
- You must have or know your Social Security Number to apply to most colleges
- By signing up, it allows me to print your transcript prior to the workshop to assist you with your application
Benefits of Applying During the Workshop:
With the exception of BYU, Provo, all colleges are offering an application workshop. This is an opportunity for your scholar to complete the college’s application with the college representative present. Additionally, the college representatives normally give the scholars who attend a workshop a code to waive the application fee. This is very valuable considering most college applications cost anywhere from $50-$100.
I encourage scholars to apply to as many colleges as possible so they have options when deciding on a college. Even if you plan to go on a mission after high school, you can apply now and defer your admissions and scholarships until you return from your mission.
