College Visit Days: College visit days must be set up at least two days in advance to give the college time to prepare for your visit. Seniors get one college day per semester to visit a college of their choice. Unused days will not be carried over to the spring semester. You may not take a college day during the first or last two weeks of either semester.
College Transcripts:
Seniors make sure you transfer your UCA, UALR, and Tech transcripts to your new college. The GHS Counseling Office cannot do this for you.
You need to review your transcript online to make sure everything looks correct. If you have any issues, please bring a copy of your college transcript to the GHS Counseling Office.
