College Visits and Campus ChatsColleges and universities from around the country visit Carroll Senior High School in order to visit with our students. This is a very good opportunity for juniors and seniors to talk with a school representative and obtain information on admissions and the college experience in general. Please encourage your students to attend these Campus Chats even if they have selected a different college to attend. The general information and having questions answered can be very helpful in making your student comfortable with the transition from high school to college. On the bulletin board in front of the Guidance Office, we will post information regarding when colleges and universities will be visiting CSH or sponsoring a meeting within the Dallas-Fort Worth area.All Campus Chats are from 1:00 pm – 1:40 pm unless otherwise noted.
NCAA Initial Eligibility ClearinghouseStudents should register with the Eligibility Center at the beginning of their junior year in high school. At the end of the student's junior year, a transcript, which includes six semesters of grades, should be sent to the Eligibility Center from the high school. Additionally, students should have their SAT or ACT scores forwarded directly to the Eligibility Center (by using code "9999") whenever they take the exam.
Transcript RequestsOfficial and unofficial transcript request forms may be completed in the reception area of the Guidance Office. Request for official transcripts are $5.00 and unofficial transcripts are $2.00. Please include name of student, and most importantly, the name and address of college or institution where the request is being sent. Allow one week for transcripts to be mailed. Allow two weeks for counselors and teachers to write letters of recommendations. Check applications for deadlines. Incomplete applications or transcript requests will be returned to the student.
