Arcadia
High School
College & Career Center
The Arcadia High School College & Career Center provides services to our students as they plan for "13th grade."
We offer support for college admissions (four-year and community college), financial aid, military paths and trade school through topical workshops, individual advising, meetings with college representatives, field trips and more.
Our primary vehicle for making announcements and sharing information with students is a set of Google Classrooms for each cohort and for special topics (such as Scholarships, First-Generation College, and Arizona Public Universities). Parents, please encourage your students to join their cohort classroom! We communicate with parents primarily through ParentSquare.

Standardized Testing
The role of standardized testing in college admissions has changed radically since Arcadia parents (including your college-advising team) were in high school! Parents, forget everything you think you know.
As you and your child start forming a testing strategy, please read this article by Brennan Barnard, a leading voice on college admissions. We think this is the single most helpful guide out there today.
FAFSA
The Free Application for Federal Student Aid has been plagued with problems this year. Many of them have now been ironed out but two big issues remain. (1) Parents without social security #s cannot (yet) file electronically, and (2) applications already submitted cannot (yet) be corrected. AHS families having any difficulties at all with FAFSA are encouraged to reach out to us via email, ArcadiaCollegeandCareer@susd.org. Please check our FAFSA FAQ's and tips first.
Final Transcripts
Students must use the Parchment service to send final transcripts to colleges. Click the link to go directly to the Arcadia High School portal on Parchment. If this is your first time using the service you will need to create a new account.
