BRIDGE Activity for 12th Grade Students -
Identify Your Next Step / Celebrate "GA Apply to College"
We will complete our BRIDGE requirements as we observe NMHS GA Apply to College Day (11/08/18) during GA Apply to College Month. Thank you for celebrating GA Apply to College Day with us! Most seniors will participate during their senior English class.
For many seniors, this may be your first college application. We hope that this activity's side-by-side help from NMHS counselor's as well as admissions staff from nearby colleges will make the process more smooth and less intimidating.
Depending on the college you wish to apply to, you may commonly find their application in a couple of places:
If you are instead/additionally interested in joining a branch of US armed forces, you can request more information and/or express interest in speaking with a recruiter using the following links:

Depending on the college you wish to apply to, you may commonly find their application in a couple of places:
- The website of your school of interest should have an "Admissions" menu. Under the Admissions menus/pages, look for such key terms as "Undergraduate," "First-Time," or "Freshman" to find the right application information.
- GA Futures handles applications for many GA public colleges. Please follow the below link if you need it, and then scroll to/click the College Applications option. If you are asked to log in and do not recall having a login, feel free to create a new account. (DE students should have an active login--please use it!) You do not have to follow a particular username/password format when you set up your account, but please do record your login information somewhere safe for your future reference!

DON'T FORGET...
IMPORTANT FOR THIS ACTIVITY: There is a sign-off sheet going around the lab with the current BRIDGE activity period's students listed. By the end of the period or as you complete at least one application for a trade school, technical/community college, or 4-year college/university, please sign on the line that has your name, and indicate the name of the school or program you applied to. If you plan on enlisting in any of the United States armed services, please instead indicate your military branch of interest.
IMPORTANT FOR YOUR ADMISSIONS PROCESS: The application isn't all there is to the college admissions process! Most colleges also require that you submit college entrance exams, high school transcripts, college transcripts (for those who have participated in DE), and/or even letters of recommendation. Check out the admissions pages of your college of interest's website and look for the admissions requirements to be sure what all they require you to submit for admissions consideration. Also, you don't necessarily have to submit this all in a particular order or all at the same time, but you typically need to submit the application and other required items by the admissions deadline set by the college.
