Future Planning( Postsecondary Plans)
Even though you are just starting your high school journey, it is Wheeler’ s hope that our students become life-long learners with the knowledge, skills, and values necessary to compete successfully as honorable and productive citizens in a global society. We expect our students to continue their education after high school graduation and throughout adulthood.
Postsecondary Plans can look like: Attending a traditional four-year college or university Attending a two-year community college or technical college or institute Attending a vocational program Joining the United States Armed Forces Entering the workforce
Please keep your post-secondary plans in mind as you complete your high school career. Students can graduate by meeting the minimum state requirements; however, many colleges have admissions criteria that exceed these minimum requirements. NCAA Clearinghouse has its own requirements for athletes.
Our school counselors are always here to assist with any post-secondary plans; however, it is your responsibility to become familiar with the requirements and criteria of whatever postsecondary option you choose. Do your homework early! Requirements can differ from college to college and between programs of study. Requirements may also change from year to year. The best place to find college admissions information is directly from the college’ s website, and it’ s never too early to begin looking! Another great resource for college and career planning is www. gafutures. org – Don’ t wait until Senior year to visit this site!!!
