Finding and Paying for College

Thank you to Diana Helt for bringing in an awesome article that she saw in The Oregonian on Sunday, October 27 about financing college, FAFSA tips, and questions to ask colleges in order to make a sound financial decision, and apps that help with your college search in general.  I'm attaching the links so you can check them out.  They come highly recommended, so they will be well worth your time :)

SAT Registration Deadlines

Seniors - if you haven't registered for your fall SAT yet, the deadline is November 8th to get registered for the December 7 test date. 

Juniors - sign up NOW for your spring SAT before the date/location you want is full.  I recommend that Juniors take the May 3 or June 7 test (as late in the year as possible).

To register, go to: https://sat.collegeboard.org and log into your College Board account using the user name and password you set when we went over your PSAT results in 9th/10th grade.
