Seniors - Class of 2025
Automatic Admissions
Seniors, do you have a 3.3 GPA and have met, or are on track to meet your CADRs (College Academic Distribution Requirements)?
You may be receiving an Automatic Admissions Letter from Pacific Lutheran University. (It's real! )
What does this mean? Just that you have another option when it comes to choosing your next step after high school. How neat! Please see Mr. Johnson if you have any questions.
A Message from Mr. Johnson
Hi Seniors,
I know many of you are in the thick of college applications, or at least thinking about applying. If you haven't already, it's a great time to start looking at colleges that may be right for you. CommonApp is an amazing resource where you can apply to multiple colleges at once. If you need help with college applications, reviewing essays, resumes, or just any questions about post high school life, Dr. Chase and I will be doing "Beyond HS Assistance" during the next Wednesday WIN time.
P.S. During this year, you will feel many emotions ranging from high stress to extreme joy. Don't forget to stop, take a breath, and enjoy the moment. You are all capable of doing great things!
-Mr. Johnson
