Searching Majors & Programs?
At the college level each program area (Biology, English, Art, etc...) has many different majors associated with it; different aspects that a student can choose to pursue. The following links provide students the opportunity to see what majors are available in Wisconsin and Minnesota's public and private schools. Please note that students can also search by key words.

College Fairs
You may want to attend a college fair where representatives from several colleges and universities from around the state and across the country gather in one location.
College Applications
Seniors are encouraged to submit college applications early; preferably before Halloween. Applying early increases your chances of being accepted into the college and program of your choice. It also gives you the opportunity to improve ACT scores, grades, collect references, etc., in the event you are put on a wait list. Best of all, you will be able to relax and enjoy the holiday seasons knowing that you have completed a big step towards your future.
Please notify the counseling office each time you apply to a college/university, as we will need to submit a copy of your transcript as part of your application process. Some colleges/universities have a counselor form as part of the application.
Planning a College Visit?
Junior and seniors are allowed a maximum of three (3) college campus visits (during school hours) beginning February 1st of grade 11 through April 30th of grade 12 (3 total, not 3 each year). You will need a signed, Campus Visit Proposal Form turned into the counseling office three (3) school days prior to the campus visit in order to be excused. You can click here to print a form or pick one up from the Counseling Office. No campus visits are allowed during the month of May. You may want to plan a visit on one of our "no school" days.
