1 MUSTANG MESSAGES November Newsletter Now is the time for your senior to be applying for college admission to attend post-secondary school next fall. Most colleges like students to apply for admission as early as possible so that other arrangements, such as financial aid, housing, etc. can be worked out more easily. If your student has narrowed the college choices down to two or three schools, I would encourage your child to apply to each school. I also encourage both you and your senior to visit each of these campuses. Then you can see firsthand the advantages and disadvantages of each campus. There is a great deal of information on colleges in Nebraska available to view in the guidance office. If you would like to look over this information, just call ( ) or stop in. Most colleges also have websites that provide useful information and I can help you obtain addresses. Chris Sluka Guidance Counselor IMPORTANT NOVEMBER DATES Fri., Nov. 7 December ACT Reg.

SL, Kenesaw, and Doniphan-Trumbull will all receive the program via distance learning. The program will run just over an hour and will be led by a representative from EducationQuest. Parents, seniors and juniors are welcome to attend. Parents who have not been involved in the college financial aid process before are encouraged to attend. A TROUBLING TREND Some of you may have received postcards in the mail inviting you to participate in a nationwide scholarship search. For a modest fee, these agencies guarantee that your student will receive a scholarship through their search. The old saying if it s too good to be true usually holds true. Many of these organizations do not hold true to their promise of awarding scholarships and then fail to give refunds. You are strongly urged not to pay for this service. The Kearney EducationQuest office provides a free scholarship search. EducationQuest does not guarantee a student any scholarships, but it does provide the student with a list of awards the student is eligible to apply for. The internet sources below are also excellent ways to find information about scholarships. GET ON THE NET FOR SCHOLARSHIPS EducationQuest recommends several web sites for conducting scholarship searches. These include: EducationQuest FASTAID FASTWEB SRN Scholarships College Board

RETAKING THE ACT AND OTHER INFO Statistics given at a recent ACT workshop revealed the following information: 13 % of students score a 27 or higher on the ACT, 42 % score 22 or higher, and 27% score 17 or below. TYPES OF UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES A little terminology may be helpful during the upcoming months. First of all, an undergraduate is a college student who has not yet earned a degree. A graduate student already has a bachelor s degree and is working towards a masters or doctorate degree. There are two major types of undergraduate degrees. An Associate degree is a degree awarded to a student who has completed a twoyear program. A student may earn an Associate of Arts (AA) or an Associate of Science (AS). A bachelor or baccalaureate degree is a degree awarded to a student who has completed a fouryear college course of study. The most common types of bachelor degree programs include the Bachelor of Arts (BA) and the Bachelor of Sciences (BS). In terms of retaking the ACT, the following information was presented: 15 % who re-tested improved 3 or more points, 18 % who re-tested improved 2 points, 24 % who re-tested improved 1 point, 22 % earned the same score, and 21 % had scores decrease. FINANCIAL AID BITS AND PIECES This year s PELL grant max is $4800. Most colleges award PELL eligible recipients between $500 and $1500 Parents with an adjusted gross income of $20,000 or less, who are not required to file a 1040 tax form have an automatic zero estimated family contribution and will be eligible for a maximum PELL award Students and parents may now obtain a PIN number for filing the Federal Application for Student Aid (FAFSA) by logging on to or The PIN number will be mailed within 7-10 days of request or ed within 3 days. The federal government is strongly encouraging parents to file the FAFSA electronically. Plan to have the FAFSA filed by March 1 to able to obtain the most funds possible. NOVEMBER CHECKLIST During the month of November, seniors should be doing the following tasks: -applying for admission to colleges, -making college visits, -applying for scholarships, -registering for the December ACT (if applicable), -prepare resumes/essays for future needs.
