College Visits
Visiting a college is a great way to get a feel for a campus and make sure it will be a good fit for you. To have a college visit during a school day excused, print the form to the right, fill it out, have it signed by the college when you visit and then give it to the attendance office when you return. Juniors and senior are allowed two excused college visits each year (these two days do not count against your exemptions). When scheduling your visit(s), keep in mind that only the day of the visit is excused, not any days used for travel.College Visit Form
