• The college representative will most likely be the person reading your application to that college. Market yourself positively!
• See Mrs. Vernalia, Guidance Administrative Assistant, at least one block before the session for a pass in order for us to provide an appropriate space for the visit.
• Sign up for the college visit on Naviance under "About Colleges" then "Visit Schedule" and finally "Sign Me Up".
• If you have a major assignment, presentation or assessment in a class during a scheduled visit, you must complete your academic obligation before the visit. See your counselor with any conflicts.
