College Application Process

Please Note - STUDENTS ARE RESPONSIBLE for contacting Collegeboard and ACT to send official score reports to any college they wish to apply.

General Advice

• Process your applications as early as possible (September, October, or
  early November).

• Be mindful of all deadlines.

• Process your application through the Counseling Office at least one week before
  the deadline. Remember to allow extra time if you are mailing near a school holiday
  or a busy time for the postal service.

• If you apply online, you must inform the Counseling Office so we can send your
  transcript to the college. Request your transcript by emailing transcripts@boyertownasd.org. There may also be a portion for the counselor to complete.  Transcripts can only be sent if a student fills out the Transcript Release Form.

• Give teachers & counselors at least 10 days to write recommendations for you.  School Counselors require a Brag Sheet completed before writing a letter of recommendation. Provide envelopes and postage to teachers & counselors to mail the recommendations.

• Make sure you complete all parts of the application that apply to you.

• Make sure you sign and date your application.
