By David Carmichael The students of East High school have many resources to access and help with college and SAT practice. These resources provide ways for a senior (or even juniors) to get a head start on college. The school has always had a College Prep Center that has helped many seniors in the past. The CPC has given help such as career & college searches, college application assistance, financial aid assistance, and personal statement assistance to name a few. This year we have websites like the Common App, and Naviance to help with tracking college applications, and applying to colleges and it also allows your counselor to help guide you. Websites like Khan Academy helps students practice for SATs and give them a potential to earn some early financial aid while they practice for the SAT. The other big website that helps is Collegeboard. They provide step-by-step guides for college help and access, and they also help with AP courses and PSAT and SAT score management. East also has the Gear Up program which works with helping students prepare and apply for college, and they also go on college visits. They most recently took a trip to New York City to visit colleges. There is also Talent Search, and Upward Bound. These are all part of the pre-college programs connected to the U of R and they are located and run out of B110 the counseling suite. There’s plenty of programs that help from academic advising, application assistance, SAT/ACT registration, tutoring, college tours, stem internships, enrichment programs and more.
