Use Family Connections!  This is a great tool for researching colleges and for keeping track the colleges in which you are interested. 

A few of the available tools in Family Connection:

My Resume– Great resume builder. Document your accomplishments throughout high school. Teachers and counselors may use this to help write your recommendation letters.  Include the final draft with any applications.

My Colleges– Save your favorite colleges here! This will help you organize and keep track of the colleges in which you are interested.

College Search– Great place to start sifting through all of the colleges out there. After you have a list of potential schools, come to the CRC to learn more!

Scattergrams–  Look at how you compare in terms of ACT and GPA to other Maine West students who have applied to specific colleges.

College Match– An interesting way to see where MWHS grads with your profile were accepted. Additionally, you can see universal overlaps for each of the schools in “My Colleges.” If you put College USA into “My Colleges” you can see the top 5 schools where students across the country applied if they also applied to College USA.

College Lookup– Research specific colleges.  What are these schools’ overlaps? Find out about College Rep visits. Learn More...
