Whether it’s continuing your education, serving in the military, taking a gap year or entering the work force, create a post that includes your name, a photo and your plans for after graduation. Undecided? No problem! Reach out to College & Career advisor Brandie Cleaver at [email protected] or your counselor for some guidance. They can help with college applications, financial aid, and other opportunities. 

Graduation requirements: 

All seniors must pass EOC and TSI testing! See your counselor if you are unsure if you have passed these graduation requirements.

College Financial Aid: In order for students to apply for scholarships, they must complete the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The first step is setting up your FSA ID by following the steps on the QR code below and rounding up needed documents.

FAFSA: Completing the FAFSA or opting out is a GRADUATION REQUIREMENT.  AHS support for FAFSA happens every Wednesday and Thursday between noon-4:30 p.m.  The chamber of commerce is able to provide zoom support session via appointment in addition to hosting additional workshops across Austin.  To register for a FAFSA event, visit this link: Red Kite.  Students can attend any of the FAFSA events listed on Red Kite.

FAFSA Support: ACC virtual financial aid office at austincc.edu/facontact is open Monday - Thursday from 9AM - 4PM and 9AM - noon Friday. Students can join a Zoom session anytime to get one-on-one help with the FAFSA (or TASFA) or get answers to their questions. 

FAFSA Completed:  Upload Proof via this link!!! FEWER THAN 100 SENIORS HAVE PROVIDED PROOF OF THEIR FAFSA COMPLETION AND MET GRADUATION REQUIREMENTS!
