College Representative and College Visits
College Representative Visits
Throughout the year representatives from various colleges and trade schools visit Sun Valley to meet with juniors and seniors. Students can sign up for upcoming visits in SchooLinks.
College Visits
Students are allowed four total excused absences for college visits (two during their junior year and two during their senior year). In order to make a campus visit during a school day, you must fill out a College Visit form from the counseling office and turn it into the attendance office prior to your visit. Upon your return, students should bring verification that they attended the college visit and provide it to the attendance office (ie. college brochure, note from the college).
The best time to visit colleges is during the spring semester of your junior year. The summer between junior and senior year can also be a great time. Call the admissions office or set up a visit on the college’s website at least 1-2 weeks in advance to arrange a campus tour, information session, admissions interview and meeting with a financial aid officer.
