If you plan to attend a community college (ICC) when you graduate, you do not need to take the SAT or ACT. SAT /ACT are required by the 4 year universities for students who plan to attend immediately after high school.
![Page 9: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
If you plan to attend ICC or any community college, you will need to
take the ASSET or COMPAS assessment by 2nd semester of your
senior year. Again, an SAT/ACT score is not necessary for admission to a
community college.

NCAA ClearingHouseIf you plan to participate in college
sports, you must submit an application to NCAA. If you do not, you will not
be permitted to participate in any college athletic program.
![Page 12: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
You should register with NCAA during your junior year in high school.
The website iswww.eligibilitycenter.org
![Page 13: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
In order to qualify, you must meet the requirements set forth by NCAA concerning your GPA and the 16
required core courses. NCAA does not accept most credit recovery courses;
therefore, if you fail a core course, you will need to retake the entire course. Go to the website, see your coach, or see a
school counselor for details.
![Page 14: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Students must meet the SAT or ACT requirements in order to qualify with
NCAA. When you register for the SAT or ACT, be sure to have your scores sent directly to NCAA. The code is 9999.
NCAA will not accept SAT/ACT scores that are printed on your transcript; if you do
not use the code, you will have to pay to have the scores sent separately.

FAFSAFree Application for Federal
Student Aid

![Page 16: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

Submit your FAFSA application as soon AFTER January 1st as possible of your
senior year.You must use the information from your parents’ income tax return, so you may
want to let them know in time to gather and submit tax information as soon as possible;
the deadline is usually early March, but each college may vary. Also, once the
money is gone, there is no more! It is in your best interest to submit asap.
![Page 18: R-S Central High School Junior Planning Presented by Mrs. Davis](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081603/56814251550346895dae7c1b/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
