will be given to students who complete more challenging coursework.
Testing results—Students should plan to take the SAT Reasoning Test and/or ACT in the spring

and occasionally AP exam results.
Recommendations—Colleges require a letter of recommendation from your school counselor
and often, upon request, a letter from one or more teachers. Consider this fact as you work to
develop positive relationships with your counselor and teachers.
Nonacademic activities—Colleges consider how you engage the community beyond the
classroom. Involvement in school sports, clubs/activities, community service, and part-time
employment reflect positively on you during the admissions process.
