A high school of choice, a college of opportunity.

CSNHS is a program designed to provide a smooth transition from high school to college. Our school provides a
combination of high school and college credits through an agreement between the Clark County School District
and the College of Southern Nevada. This program offers smaller classes, individualized instruction, flexible
scheduling, and an opportunity to advance your academic career.
Seniors: Don't forget to file your FAFSA Print

The FAFSA (Free Application for Federal Student Aid) must be filed in order for students to be eligible for Federal Student Aid following high school. Parents of high school seniors may submit the FAFSA on the web at www.fafsa.ed.gov after January 1, 2010. In order to do so, the parent and student must have filed for a P.I.N. at www.pin.ed.gov. Parents are encouraged to complete the FAFSA on the web worksheet, which is available at the website, before entering the information online. The information entered on the FAFSA enables qualified students to be eligible for Federal Student Aid programs such as Pell Grants, Supplemental Grants (FSEOG), Loan Programs (such as FFEL and Perkins Loans), Institutional Aid Programs, and Work Study Programs. Parents who need assistance with the FAFSA may contact the college/ university the student plans to attend. A Spanish version of FAFSA on the web is also available at the website.

Parents: Completion of the FAFSA is REQUIRED in order for qualified students to be eligible for the programs mentioned above.
 
ACT/SAT Information Print

clockCCSD juniors and seniors are encouraged to register for the ACT/SAT if they have not done so already! The next SAT is in March and the next ACT is in April. These tests are required by most four-year colleges and universities for admission and placement purposes. Although colleges and universities generally accept either test, seniors are encouraged to take both tests, if possible. The ACT consists of four sections with an optional writing test. Cost for the ACT is $32.00 plus an additional $15.00 for students who take the optional writing test. The SAT I consists of two sections plus a required writing test. Cost for the SAT I is $45.00, which includes the writing test. Fee waivers are available for qualifying students.
 
What is the CSS Profile? Print

The CSS (College Scholarship Service) Profile is a financial form that some colleges/universities require

in addition to the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). While the FAFSA determines eligibility for federal funding, the CSS Profile determines eligibility for nonfederal institutional funds. Parents and students may log on to profileonline.collegeboard.com to view the list of schools that require the CSS Profile. If a college/ university requires the CSS Profile, parents and students must complete a financial worksheet at the website before registering for the Profile application. Customized questions will be asked based upon the colleges/universities selected. The initial registration fee is $25, and then a fee of $16 will be charged for each college requiring the CSS Profile. Students and parents are encouraged to complete the CSS Profile.
