Using the College Career Center
The College/Career Center is located in the
Guidance Services office at the East Campus. The College/Career
Center Manager can be reached at 815-588-8376.
If you want to look through files, books, or
catalogues, you must get a pass from the College/Career Center
Manager prior to your visit. Before you come for your appointment,
you should go first to your assigned study hall teacher or other
supervisor and show your pass, have them initial the pass and go to
the College/Career Center. If you would like to pick up an
application, ACT or SAT packet, you may pick it up during passing
periods (you can not be late for your next class, passes will not be
given to go back to class), before or after school.
Parents: If parents would like to use
the computers or visit the College/Career Center, appointments
should be made with the College/Career Center manager. This will
insure that computers and staff are available for your assistance.
FILE CABINETS
Applications for colleges are located inside
the marked drawers of the file cabinets. (With the increased use of
technology, colleges and universities are going to the online
application process. The majority of schools strongly encourage
online applications.) If the application folder is empty, please
notify the College/Career Center manager. Miscellaneous information
about universities and colleges is available alphabetically inside
the marked drawers.
VIDEOS AND COLLEGE LITERATURE
These are found against the wall on the
countertop. If you want to check out a video, please check it out
with the College/Career Center manager. You may use the information
for up to three (3) days. You may also view the video during your
study hall in the College/Career Center, provided that there is not
a college or military representative present.
BOOKCASE WITH SLOTS
There are several sources of information
available in each slot. Some of the items available are the ACT and
SAT forms, course description books, financial aid information,
FAFSA forms, and numerous other materials.
COMPUTERS
You may access the Internet for future career
information and college exploration. There is a printer available to
print any information pertaining to your career or college search.
