Applying to college takes several steps. You can either apply online or via a paper copy. The online application is typically faster and sometimes free! Once you submit an application, you need to do several things.
- Make sure you have submitted your Information Release form. This yellow form was mailed home to you in September. We must have this on file before we can release your records.
- Turn in the Transcript Request From (blue sheet).
- If the application requires a counselor/teacher recommendation, please turn in the Recommendation Form (green sheet).
- Make sure you meet our transcript/application deadlines.

Deadlines
Due to the large number of applications that we process at EHS, we ask that you be considerate when turning in your applications and requesting transcripts to be sent.
Please get your requests to us AT LEAST TEN DAYS prior to the college application deadline. Keep in mind that this also includes any teacher recommendation forms. Tell your teacher to also meet this deadline, which means you must ask for their recommendation several weeks prior. The teachers will need to give their recommendation and form directly to our office, not back to you.
For those using the Common Application...
Also bring in the Mid-Year and Final Report. The Mid-Year will be mailed once semester grades are posted in January. The Final Report will be sent with your final transcript in June. Please include a note as to which colleges these need to be sent.
