Visiting Colleges

College-bound juniors and seniors may be excused for two days to visit colleges to which they have applied for admission. These absences must be prearranged through the attendance office.

Please call the Attendance Office (847.755.3670) two school days prior to a college visit. A pre-excused pass will be issued. The student should pick up the pass the following morning in the Attendance Office, and procure the signatures of all instructors. The signed pre-excused pass is returned to the Attendance Office at the end of the same school day. All college visits need to be cleared as a pre-excused absence. Failure to do so will result in the absence being counted as a regular excused absence.
