September 20, 2024 “WHY APPLY DAY”
| Today is #WhyApply Day! We need you to talk to everyone you know about why it’s important for students to apply to a postsecondary institution. So put on your college gear and join the American College Application Campaign (ACAC) to build excitement around the college application process. To celebrate the nearly 467,000 students who will participate in the college application campaign this fall, #WhyApply Day will kick off the college application season, and provide encouragement for students. Show your support by sharing why you believe students should apply to college. |
