College Now Services
Foundation Underwrites College Now Program for HHS Students
College Now increases college attainment through college access and success advising, financial aid counseling, and scholarship services. Appointments are held at the high school for parents and students. During the 2023-2024 school year, College Now advisors, Anne Gates and Jackson Stuff, served 274 Highland High School students during the school day through 55 individual sessions and 247 students through group presentations. 57% of seniors were seen during the year and received expert services relating to financial aid and college affordability. In addition to meeting with students, Anne and Jackson also met with over 60 parents and family members. More than 1700 students have taken advantage of on-site advisory services throughout this program’s 10-year history at Highland. College Now provides scholarship opportunities to partnering schools; as a result, one of our Class of 2024 Highland graduates was awarded the College Now Traditional Scholarship.

College Now Scholarship
As part of their services, College Now awards a scholarship to a Highland student to support the recipient in post-secondary education. The recipient must meet GPA requirements as well as ACT and SAT testing score requirements. The 2024 College Now scholarship was awarded to Aidan Neuman. Aidan has been a highly involved student at Highland High School. To highlight just a few of his extracurricular activities, Aidan has participated in Marching Band as a talented trombone player, as well as been a member of Chess Club, Robotics Club, and Speech & Debate. He plans to attend the University of Wooster in the fall to study Mathematics. Congratulations, Aidan!
