SCHOOL LOGO and/or ADDRESS DATE Dear (NAME OF ORGANIZATION), (NAME OF YOUR HIGH SCHOOL/ORGANIZATION) is pleased to announce its participation in Montana College Application Week. In an effort to further expand college access initiatives College Application Week will be held at sites throughout the state during week of October 1-5. The goal of College Application Week is to provide every graduating high school senior the opportunity to apply to college with a particular focus on helping first-generation low-income students, and students who may not otherwise apply to college. College Application Week can open the door for students by encouraging them to take a significant step toward college in their senior year. What began in 2005 as a single day at one high school in North Carolina has evolved into statewide campaigns to help students in all fifty states and the District of Columbia. Montana has participated since 2012 and anticipates that approximately 130 high schools and community based organizations will host events this year. A critical component of College Application Week is the one-on-one support provided by volunteers who help students fill out applications at school. Volunteers may include high school staff, registrars and admissions officers from nearby postsecondary institutions, and representatives from the community. We will be hosting our event on (DATE(S) AND TIME) and would welcome representatives from (NAME OF ORGANIZATION) to visit our school during this exciting and important time. Volunteers can greet and sign-in students, assist students with the completion of online college applications, or distribute information about financial aid opportunities. Our students would really appreciate your help and support as they take a big step toward going to college. If you or any of your colleagues at (NAME OF ORGANIZATION) are interested in working with (NAME OF YOUR HIGH SCHOOL) in any capacity please contact me no later than (DEADLINE). Thank you!
