HHS School Counseling Announcements

Below is a list of recordings from the College Application Bootcamp. They have lots of very good information (especially if you learn best by watching videos!) The Nuts and Bolts of the College Application Process  - this session has been offered for the past 3 years to parents only. Students have provided great feedback on it indicating that it has lessened their anxiety and helped them better understand how all the pieces of the application process fit together and how everything comes together to become a final and complete application. Run time = 45 minutes. The Nitty Gritty of the Process  - this session looks at some of the more technical pieces of the process that are critical in ensuring your college application materials arrive on time! It also walks you through Naviance and the tools available to you in this process. Run time = 10 minutes Common App  - this session takes a closer look at the Common Application and tips and tricks you might not know about! Run time = 20 minute

College application season is truly upon us! We have included some information here which we hope you will find helpful as you navigate this process in this unprecedented time.  We have put together the  2020 - 2021 HHS College Application Procedure Guide  to allow you the opportunity to tackle all of the necessary tasks involved in submitting applications (including but not limited to matching Common App and Naviance, asking for teacher recommendations, and how to request a transcript.) Many (not all - some are self-report) colleges still require transcripts directly from Holliston High School. In order to make this happen, students need to complete a  Transcript Request Form  15 school days in advance of the deadline. General HHS information (class size, GPA information, etc.) can be found here . We are enjoying virtual visits with many students and their families. Please don't hesitate to set up a convenient time to meet using the links on the bottom of the main HHS School Couns
