Attention 2011 Seniors!

Attention 2011 Seniors! Your final year of high school is almost here!

I hope that you have enjoyed your summer, but are now beginning to think about switching gears and getting back in the classroom. It might seem like graduation is still a long time away but this year will go by fast and it is time to really take college planning seriously. Believe it or not, students who are going into their senior year are able to be accepted for admission now! We encourage students to apply for admission now in order to start receiving information for accepted students. Remember, applying and being accepted for admission, accepting scholarships, receiving a residence hall assignment, and even registering for classes does not ever commit you to a school. So it is important to apply to the schools you are interested in early so that you can complete other important materials such as scholarship applications.

You can find the application for admission online at www.bhsu.edu/apply or we can also drop one in the mail for you. Just have your high school send us your high school transcript and we can process your application. It is as easy as that.

Do not worry if any of this sounds confusing or hard to believe, we know it can be a lot to think about. So make it easy on yourself and give us a call or shoot us an email. That way we can talk about your questions and concerns and make sure that you have all the information you need. You can also think about scheduling a campus visit as well. I hope to hear from you soon!
