    Westchester Community College rep assists Rye Lake seniors with their applications

    Westchester Community College admissions officer Stephanie Annunziata assisted seniors at Rye Lake Campus Middle-High School with applying to the school and offered guidance in navigating the college planning process.
     
    Ms. Annunziata visits with seniors here each fall. A professor and former WCC student, she walks students through WCC’s online application and answers their questions. Application fees were waived for all WCC applicants from Oct. 20-Nov. 3.
     
    “We are so appreciative to have this opportunity each year to assist students with the application process,” School Counselor Cristina Tompkins said. “WCC is a great option for so many of our students."
