MY FAVORITE CAREERS AND CLUSTERS

COLLEGES WILL PROBABLY BE THE MOST USED TAB AT CHS! INCLUDES COLLEGE REP VISITS TO CHS, SUPERMATCH COLLEGE SEARCH, SCHOLARSHIP SEARCH, REQUEST TRANSCRIPTS FOR APPLICATIONS, AND ABILITY TO LINK TO COLLEGE WEBSITES.

COLLEGES SuperMatch: Narrow down the list of schools your student is interested in using the categories… you do not need to complete every step unless you want to ! *Students can add schools to Colleges I’m thinking about

COLLEGES AS EARLY AS SOPHOMORE YEAR, STUDENTS CAN SIGN UP TO MEET WITH ADMISSION REPS FROM VARIOUS COLLEGES AND UNIVERSITIES IT’S A GREAT WAY TO: FIND OUT IF YOUR STUDENT IS REALLY INTERESTED IN A PARTICULAR SCHOOL BEFORE YOU VISIT THE CAMPUS START A GOOD RELATIONSHIP WITH THE SCHOOL OF CHOICE AND THE ADMISSION REP
