  • New Hampshire's "I Am College Bound/I Applied"
    New Hampshire’s "I Am College Bound/I Applied" campaign is designed to encourage high school seniors to pursue post-secondary education and to assist them in navigating the college admission process by inviting them to submit at least one college admission application during a specified school day with the support of their school counseling office and local higher education professionals. While special focus is placed upon assisting students who would be the first in their families to attend college and students who may not have otherwise seriously considered attending college, each eligible senior at participating high schools is encouraged to take part in the event. High schools are invited to participate in the “I Am College Bound/I Applied campaign by the New Hampshire Department of Education based upon a combination of documented higher-than-state average free and reduced lunch population for high school students, as well as a lower-than-state average college- going rate. In 2017, this campaign was held from November 13 through December 1 and for the second year in a row, all New Hampshire colleges and universities offered free college applications to the students at the 34 participating public high schools during their school’s event. Participating students benefitted from an estimated $83,000 in waived college application fees (this does not include any existing free applications used by the any of the state’s colleges and universities). Additionally, each participating high school receives one $500 scholarship to be raffled and awarded to a participating student. Participating for the first time in 2017 was Pittsfield High School, where 18 seniors submitted nearly 80 #college applications! The “I Am College Bound/I Applied” campaign is part of the American College Application Campaign, a national effort to increase the number of first-generation and low-income students pursuing a college degree or other higher education credential.
