NYS College Application Month registration is now open!
As you know, College Application Month (CAM) is a nationwide campaign that seeks to bridge the gap between high school graduation and postsecondary education. Its primary goal is to increase the number of students applying to college from New York State high schools, especially considering the nationwide declining trend in undergraduate college enrollment. By equipping students with the necessary tools and guidance, we aim to ensure that every New York State student has an equal opportunity to pursue higher education and unlock their full potential.
The success of this initiative hinges on the active participation from all New York high schools and securing their commitment to increasing the number of students applying to college.
HESC has a wide range of resources on the NYS College Application Month website at www.hesc.ny.gov/cam designed to support your school's CAM events. These resources include:
- Site Coordinator Handbook
- Media Kit to help schools promote CAM
- 10 Ways to Build Excitement for Applying to College
- CAM Event Posters
- Student Next Steps Worksheet
- College Research Worksheet
- What to Bring Checklist
- College Application Checklist
- College Fee Waiver Information
We believe in education's impact on society, and your support will make a substantial difference in students' lives. Together, we can create a bright future for all of New York State’s youth.
