Featured Oregon Goes To College Resource: Creating a Budget
Worksheet for students to create a budget while they are in college. Also available as a Google Doc.
Here's what you need to know about the College Board's new SAT score. The roughly 2 million fledgling college students who take out their No. 2 pencils for the SAT each year will now be assigned a score reflecting not only math and verbal skills but also their social and economic backgrounds. https://www.cnn.com/2019/05/18/us/sat-adversity-score-factors/index.html?utm_source=Oregon+GEAR+UP+Newsletter&utm_campaign=96f62bf8dc-GEARUPNewsletter_5_22_19&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_1178be9b0e-96f62bf8dc-351014877
Report Financial Support
Alert! If you are going on to college or a career/technical program and receiving any type of financial support to help cover the cost –WE NEED TO KNOW ASAP. There is a bright pink form for you to record ALL of this info (including the colleges where you were accepted but are NOT going to attend). These forms can be found in the ASPIRE and Counseling offices. Senior Advisors also have copies. We can’t brag about you at Senior Assembly without these details!!
All Students/Parents--Check Out Information Below
1). It’s the time of year when two very important tasks need tending by Seniors in ASPIRE.
a. Seniors MUST complete the ASPIRE exit survey – which literally takes a few minutes. HERE IS THE LINK TO IT. This can be done on computer or phone. There is also a shortcut to the survey on the desktop of the computers in ASPIRE. When you submit your survey, it pays forward – helping to ensure ASPIRE is funded next year. Your comments also help ASPIRE improve how it can help students in the future. Thank you!

b. If you’ve attended Senior Assemblies in the past, you’ll recall that the graduates are recognized and honored for the scholarships and grants they have received to help pay for college. We will begin collecting that info from you THIS WEEK. Please remember to check or have on hand your Student Aid Report from FAFSA and the financial aid offers you’ve received from ALL colleges where you applied.
