ACT/SAT/SAT II’s/APEVERY COLLEGE IS DIFFERENT IN WHAT THEY REQUIRE! Read each school’s admissions requirements carefully!
Go to the College Board under Advanced Placement (apstudent.collegeboard.org/creditandplacement) to see if schools you’re interested in give CREDIT for your AP scores (instead of just “advanced placement”).
Go to www.fairtest.org/university/optional for a growing list of schools that don’t always require an ACT/SAT score. (Eastern, UPS, WSU…..)
Fee waivers are available ~ see your Counselor….

Transferring to a 4-year
College/University?Students can begin their studies at a
CommunityCollege and then TRANSFER to a 4-year
college:
1.1 - 39 credits = take the SAT/ACT for college admission. (No guarantee that all credits will transfer.)
2.40 credits or more = do NOT need to take the SAT/ACT (No guarantee that all credits will transfer.)
3. Work with your CC counselor/advisor to complete a DIRECT TRANSFER AGREEMENT (if possible) so all credits will transfer! EX: An AA in Accounting at Centralia College transfers
DIRECTLY into St. Martin’s BA in Business/Acctg. degree with NO LOSS OF CREDITS!!!

Where do I plan to live?
4-year college bound?
On-campus dorms want
a deposit by April or
May…
Most 2-year colleges seldom have dorms, so have you gone on-line to look for an apartment yet? Or a roommate?
Where will I travel to for an apprenticeship?
The military will often house you in barracks while you complete Basic Training.
