Counselor's Corner
Scoir
Hello everyone!
This week's topic is Scoir. This application was introduced to our school last year. It is a wonderful resource that allows students to discover career options, decide which college best suits the student, and apply to colleges. Scoir is simple to use, it combines your child's information together making the process easier each time you apply to a different college. You can apply to almost every college using Scoir. It is a wonderful resource because it keeps me informed and notifies me when I need to send over additional documentation. Without this application, I may not get notifications and know what I need to send. This is why it is so important to communicate with me while applying to colleges! I have provided resources that explain what it is used for and how to apply using Scoir!
