Howard//sat Help Posted on 06-17-2008
jasmineh

I'm applying early action to the one and only HU... I feel I have a pretty good chance of getting in but ONE big problem I havent taken my SAT'S yet I kind of pushed off taking them because of nerves but I just found out the earliest date I can take them is on september 9th YIKES will I be able to get all my info in to Howard to be considered for acceptance and financial aid by the deadline... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE HELP..... Is there anything I can do to speed up this process or take a different test like the ACT or are they on the same testing schedule

Hey jasmineh and HBCUlover! Jasmineh thanks for posting this thread. i'm in the same position as you. i'm going to be a senior this upcoming school year and i also want to apply to Howard early action but like you have yet to take the SAT because of nervousness as well as other reasons. i found out the earliest test date for the SAT this year is sep. 9th so i plan to take the SAT then. Howard is my first choice too. i think the only reason i'm applying to other schools as well is because that's what's expected. HBCUlover, it's too bad your not interested in going to Howard too because you seem like cool people but i don't blame you cuz i'm not tryin to go to college up the street from where i/my parents live either. spelman's not for me (especially since they don't have nursing for a major) but one of my besties wants to go there sooo bad. i should prob. tell her about this website n then you two can talk about spelman or whatever. so yeah but good luck wit all your applications since i see you want to apply to several schools. oh yeah n thanks for all the info about DC anymore would be greatly appreciated. but yeah jasmineh, we gotta make sure we stay on top of those SAT dates (deadlines for registering and test dates n stuff) so we can apply early action to Howard and hopefully get accepted! deuces
hope to see you at howard are you applying for any scholarships or financial aid

well i hope when i take the SAT i can get a high enough score to qualify for one of the scholarships that Howard offers. i also plan to apply for outside scholarships but haven't really started searching for those yet. but yeah i def. need to apply for fin. aid because that's my only hope of paying for college (that or go in debt which isn't a very good option if you ask me ) what about u, are you applying for schollys and fin.aid?

I'm hoping to get a capstone or a founder scholarship which one are you trying to get? I havent been looking for outside scholarships yet but is something I'm going to start doing during the summer... I need financial aid as well I really don't want to take out loans I hate being in debt...
