Common Application HELP!- Friday, September 19th at lunch

The college counselors will be in the Founders computer lab during lunch to help with any questions about filling out the Common App, matching your Common App, or anything else! That's also a good time to come by if you would like to log into your College Board or ACT account and make sure you have sent your scores and/or added schools to your fall registrations for your early schools. We can also answer any questions about non- Common App applications.
