COLLEGE VISITS HERE AND AROUND TOWN

The representatives that colleges send to meet with you on the HHS campus are often the very people who read your admission applications. Students from all grade levels are invited to meet with college reps when they visit our school--just be sure to get a pass from your teacher if the visit is scheduled during class time. This is your chance to ask specific questions about a college and for the reps to get to know you as well. Representatives from colleges around the country will start their visit schedule in the fall, so keep checking this site for college rep visits to Hollywood High.

Some colleges cannot afford to send their representatives to every high school, so they have Information Sessions in strategic parts of town, usually at a hotel or school--it's a "We can't come to you, so you come to us" affair, usually at night or on a weekend so parents can come with their students to ask questions. Also colleges host fairs and Open Houses on their campuses so you can see the campus first-hand. These events will be posted on this blog and updated frequently for events in the Los Angeles area.
