MULLINS, S.C. -- In an effort to promote college awareness and access, Mullins High School and Marion High School are organizing College Application Month activities.
Mullins High School high school’s 101 seniors participated in the statewide initiative sponsored by the South Carolina Commission on Higher Education and the South Carolina Department of Education Tuesday, allowing the group to complete and submit online at least one college application as a part of this college access initiative.
Director of Guidance Jayne Suchy said the first-time event was very successful and included representatives from the U.S. Armed Forces and several area colleges and universities. “They were given the opportunity to apply and make sure all students had the experience about what the process was like,” she said.
The goal of College Application Month is to provide a forum for all South Carolina seniors to complete and file college applications.
