Discover Your Future: Master the College Visit Procedures

College decisions are coming up soon! Seniors are allowed one college visit during the school year which will not count towards attendance. Kelly Ezell stated, “It is the responsibility of the student to plan, in advance, at the college of their choice. See Michelle Jenkins in the main office for a permission slip, which must be completed and returned to the office at least one week prior to the college visit in order to get principal approval. “

Once the visit is complete, the student must have the college acknowledge the visit on the official college form including the date of the visit and the student's name. Colleges will grant this if students request a "school excuse.”  There are many colleges in a few hours drive from Morristown that students could go and visit! Examples are Carson-Newman University, Johnson University, Lincoln Memorial University, and Tusculum University.

Most college tours can be easily scheduled online through the college's website and are free. See your counselor for help signing up for college visits!
