As part of a new initiative, the guidance department at Elwood-John H. Glenn High School partnered with the admission department at Long Island University C.W. Post to provide students with an on-site admission opportunity to be accepted into the university.

Prior to the visit from L.I.U. C.W. Post admissions counselor Kylie Byrne on Dec. 3, students interested in the university submitted an application and through the on-site program, had their application fee waived. While at the high school, Elwood guidance counselors provided Byrne with the students’ official transcript, essay, letters of recommendation and SAT scores.

Thirteen students participated in a one-on-one interview with Byrne. Following the interview, Byrne provided guidance counselors with a list of students who were accepted into C.W. Post.
