College Application Week to be held October 6th at Carbon High School

Carbon High School will participate in Utah College Application Week, coordinated by the Utah System of Higher Education, during October 4th-8th, 2021.

As part of Utah’s college access initiative, Carbon High School will work with its seniors on October 6th to complete and submit at least one college application. The goal of the program is to get more students applying to Utah’s colleges early in their senior
year.

During this event, students should be encouraged to apply to any of Utah’s 19 colleges; including seven open enrollment public colleges and universities, three private schools, one research
institution and eight technical colleges, in which they are interested.

John Brooks, Utah College Application Week event Site Coordinator for Carbon High School, expects more than 200 students to participate with the help of over 20 volunteers from the community, Carbon School District, and colleges from across the state of Utah.

Utah College Application Week (UCAW) gives every high school senior in participating schools the opportunity to apply to college during the school day. UCAW is coordinated by the Utah
System of Higher Education, is part of the American College Application Campaign (ACAC) and ACT Center for Equity in Learning, and focuses on first-generation and low-income students
who are less likely to apply to and enroll in college.
