Welcome back to The Raven Report! In this episode, host Kelvin Carranza sits down with our very own College and Career Counselor, Miss Andrew, to discuss the busiest time of the year at Sci-Tech High School: College Application Season.

With the senior class already tracking 184 submitted applications, Miss Andrew takes us behind the scenes of the “busy season,” sharing the strategies her team uses to help students beat the deadlines. She also breaks down common application mistakes—like typos in emails and addresses—and shares advice on how both seniors and juniors can stay on track.

In this episode, we cover:

* The Sprint to the Finish: How the College and Career Center supports students through personal statements and deadlines.

* Common Pitfalls: Why simple typos can cost you an acceptance letter.

* Junior Jumpstart: What 11th graders should be doing now to prepare for ACT testing in the spring.

* Non-Traditional Thanksgivings: Miss Andrew shares her family’s “no turkey” tradition involving enchiladas and board games.
