Student Services News
Many state universities have an
early application deadline of Nov 15th, 2007. Make sure you are
requesting your transcripts from student services at least a week in
advance.
All seniors have a Senior Credit Check during the first term. The
Senior check includes a review of graduation requirements, a
discussion of future plans, and a
senior timeline.

Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
You must submit the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA)
if you want to apply for federal and state financial aid. Many
colleges and universities, especially public institutions, also
require the FAFSA. You must submit the FAFSA every year that you
want aid.
Obtaining a FAFSA
The FAFSA is available in several formats, including online, PDF and
paper versions.
The best option is to complete the web-based version of the FAFSA at
www.fafsa.ed.gov, known as FAFSA on the Web. It includes
step-by-step instructions for completing the online FAFSA as well as
preapplication worksheets. You can obtain a PIN to electronically
sign the form by visiting
www.pin.ed.gov.
If you have technical questions about using FAFSA on the Web, call
1-800-4-FED-AID.

Transcripts
Current Students
For us to release your transcript, you must complete a
transcript request form.
You can download this form from this website or you may pick up a
form from Student Services. There is no charge for this service if
you are currently attending OEHS. To complete the form, you will
need your student id number and the address of where you would like
the transcript sent. When attaching an application (scholarship or
college), please be sure your portion of the application is complete
before requesting your transcript. The applications are completed by
the Career Center Manager before your Counselor receives them.
Former Students
If you are a past graduate of OEHS, you must also complete a
transcript request
form/(past students). There is a $5 fee for this service. Please
be prepared to supply the name and address of the place you would
like your transcript mailed. We must send the transcript directly to
the college, employer, etc. for it to be considered official. If you
want to pick up your transcript, please note that it will be an
unofficial copy. Transcript request forms can be found in the
security office, Door #1 at OEHS or on this website. If you do not
live in the area, please fax 630.554.5830 or mail your request. If
you fax a request, please mail the $5 fee to Oswego East High School
Student Service Department, 1520 Harvey Road, Oswego, IL 60543.
Volunteering
 Volunteering
is rewarding and is beneficial to include on resumes and scholarship
applications. Pick up a verification form in the Student Services
office or print one on-line. Have the site supervisor sign the sheet
and return it to Student Services. We will track your hours as you
work toward the Service Learning Award which requires 150 hours.
