Points to Ponder….
• Admission Decision is made based upon
freshman, sophomore, and junior years of high
school.
• Senior year is last preparatory year before college
level work (rigor of senior year schedule)
• Colleges want students to take some type of
math senior year
45
Points to Ponder (cont.)….
• Honors courses=Stronger Test Scores
Often times, test score is what gets you considered for
scholarships
• VU requires one year of high school chemistry for all
Health Occupations majors
• Recommend students create resume and update
throughout high school; include extra-curricular
activities, honors, awards, leadership positions held,
employment, volunteer activities, community
involvement
46
Points to Ponder (cont.)….
• Summer before Senior year is a great time to
explore colleges
• Community Involvement
47
21st Century Scholars

remaining tuition not covered by award.
