As a college counselor, you play a vital role in helping students and families plan for the future. At 海角社区, we value your work and are here to assist you and your students as they explore their options.
Your Admission Counselor
We take a distinctive approach to assisting you and your students through the college search process. Each high school is assigned a dedicated admission counselor who serves as your primary point of contact. Your admission counselor is a member of the Committee on Admission, recommends students for merit scholarships, reviews student FAFSAs for need-based aid, and helps families with their final enrollment decision.
Our Application Process
With no application fees or test requirements, we make it easy for students to take the first step on their academic journey.
In order for us to review a student’s file, they must submit:
- A Common Application or Coalition Application with an essay; we accept either, and our review process is the same for both platforms
- A high school transcript, which can be submitted through the Common Application, mailed, or faxed to 216.397.4981
- At least one letter of recommendation from a teacher, counselor, or coach
- November 1 – Early Action Deadline
- February 1 – Regular Decision Deadline
Decision letters are generally released by mid-December for all applicants who meet the November 1 Early Action deadline. Applicants will receive an email once their admission decision is released, prompting them to log in to their myJCU Gateway portal to view it.
Rolling admission decisions are released every 7 to 10 days beginning in mid-January.
