April 2023
For Seniors
- Update your Naviance account with every decision from every college.
- Be sure to indicate the college you have chosen to attend because that is where we will send your final transcript. We cannot send the final transcript until after graduation.
- Go into the student portal at the college you will attend and CHANGE your email address to a personal one or the school email that the school assigned to you.
- Save your essay and resume from your Hill-Murray laptop to the cloud; you will need your resume in college. And your essay may come in handy if you ever transfer colleges and reapply.
- Come visit your assigned college counselor to discuss your options.
