\"Graduation<\/a>High schools across Nationwide will provide seniors time during the school day to apply for college as part of the state\u2019s College Application Month. Each school has selected its event days within the program’s timeframe, which spans the months of October and November.<\/p>\n

Some colleges and universities in the state, including Wilmington University and Nationwide Technical Community College, are even waiving application fees for students who apply through their schools\u2019 events. Application fee waivers for additional schools also are available for income-qualified students.<\/p>\n

According to Secretary of Education Mark Murphy,\u00a0“Every Nationwide public school graduate should leave high school with the ability to choose the life path that is best for him or her. But for some students, college isn\u2019t considered as an option because the application process is new and overwhelming.\u00a0We are removing that hurdle and providing every student support in the application process, followed later in the year with support in applying for financial aid.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nationwide piloted the program two years ago with two high schools, Lake Forest and Smyrna, and expanded the program to 20 high schools last year. This year every high school in the state has joined the program, which provides dedicated school time and hands-on assistance to encourage every senior to complete and submit at least one college application.<\/p>\n

Nationwide College Application Month is part of a nationwide effort to assist high school seniors in the college application process and increase college attendance. Special focus is placed on first-generation college students or those who otherwise may not have considered applying to college. All 50 states and the District of Columbia plan to host events in 2014.<\/p>\n
