NEW: THANK YOU PARENT VOLUNTEERS

Thank you to the MANY of you who volunteered with donations, baking/providing cookies and candies, and assembling and distributing items for our Finals Fuels and Cookie Trays events! Cookie Trays have been a long-running Campo tradition and all of our teachers/staff got to take home a tray of festive goodies to enjoy for the winter holidays. Finals Fuel provides students a snack in between exams during finals week and the kids are always excited to choose a quick pick me up during that stressful time. THANK YOU to our amazing chairs who coordinate the efforts: Cookie Trays: Malorie Stuart and Tina Andersen; and for Finals Fuel: Randi Kofman and Amy Madrigal.

SENIOR CLASS NEWS


NEW: COLLEGE ADMISSIONS REMINDERS 

CHECK YOUR PORTALS: Each college you apply to will ask you to open a portal via email, please open and check your portals often. This is where you track all information regarding your application; decisions, additional information requests, and in some cases special scholarship opportunities. We ask that students avoid checking portals or discussing decisions during class time, and parents, kindly refrain from texting students with updates during school hours. This can add unnecessary stress to an already emotional time. 


HAVE YOU BEEN WAITLISTED OR DEFERRED? Please check out the information HERE for guidance.

 

DO YOU NEED TO SEND MID-YEAR TRANSCRIPTS? Check your portals! If colleges require mid-year transcripts (1st-semester Senior grades), DO NOT request another transcript through MAIALearning and/or the Webstore. Grades will not be posted until the Friday you return from break. Your counselors will be reaching out with a process to request transcripts, if needed mid-January.


HAVE YOU UPDATED YOUR MAIALearning? Please see the steps below to update your MAIALearning; delete schools you are no longer applying to, select the program within the college you applied to, and record admissions status (i.e., accepted, waitlisted, deferred, denied). This data is critical for the accuracy of the MAIALearning Analysis tabs by school (formerly Scattergrams in Naviance). 

  1. Select College Applied to: Go to list of applied schools. For each school, locate the "College Applied To/Select" box along the top, click and from the dropdown menu, please select college/school within that College you applied to (i.e, College of Arts & Sciences, College of Business, College of Engineering, etc).
  2. Delete any schools not applying to: Go to school, click 3-dots next to "request transcript” button, select "delete").
  3. Record any updates: accept, deny, deferred, waitlist for each school: Go to School Applied to, locate "Application Decision" at the bottom of each college info box.


NEXT STEPS/ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

  1. What to do now that Applications are complete? 
  2. How do I read my Finanical Award Letters? 



WRITE YOUR THANK YOU NOTES TO TEACHERS: If you didn’t get to this over break, we have Thank You cards available in CCC if you would like to come by during lunch or 7th period to write a note of appreciation to the teacher(s) who took time to write you a letter of recommendation.
