Exchange Programs/Scholarships

ASSE - International Student Exchange Programs (USA-Germany exchange opportunity)

WUE - Western Undergraduate Exchange 

WUE is the Western Undergraduate Exchange, a program of the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education (WICHE). Through WUE, students in western states may enroll in many two-year and four-year college programs at a reduced tuition level: 150 percent of the institution's regular resident tuition. WUE tuition is considerably less than nonresident tuition.

Some receiving states will now accept students from ALL WICHE STATES including the state of California. Students who enroll in participating Western Undergraduate Exchange programs will qualify for the WUE tuition rate. Please see each state's listing to see if this applies.


Leadership Conferences

Many leadership opportunities are offered throughout the year.  Some are "awards", which do not cost the student anything, while some are "opportunities" that will require a financial obligation from the students family.  Please consider each opportunity carefully.  If you meet the criteria for the opportunity and would like to be nominated, please see Mr. James or Mrs. Trotter.

Volunteer Opportunities!!

Volunteerism is an important part of your education and a can be vital in your ability to obtain scholarships.  Look for volunteer opportunities throughout high school, keep track of all volunteer activities.  DO NOT devalue the things you've done.  There are many activities that we do and sometimes don't think about that could be considered volunteerism.

 

REPORT BROKEN LINKS!!!
