Horton Test Prep explains how strong SAT scores can significantly reduce the cost of college through merit-based scholarships. Families will learn which score ranges unlock meaningful financial aid, why even small score increases matter, and how students can prepare strategically to maximize results. Attendees will leave with a clear understanding of how higher SAT scores translate into real scholarship opportunities and practical steps to achieve them.

Unlock the secrets to apply, afford, and succeed in college admissions. Get the roadmap for crucial strategies, navigating deadlines, maximizing acceptance opportunities, and demystifying the financial aid landscape, essential for everyone regardless of graduation year.

As an NSHSS family, you’ve already demonstrated a commitment to academic excellence. This workshop helps you turn strong performance into a clear, strategic college admissions plan.

We invite you to return to our college & career fair and continue conversations with admissions representatives and other top corporate leaders, tour and explore the UT campus, and visit nearby eateries for lunch on your own.

Hear from a panel of NSHSS Scholarship winners about how to find and apply for scholarships and stand out in your applications!

The National Student Leadership Conference (NSLC) is an immersive summer experience for middle and high school students to explore their interests, discover their passions, and cultivate their leadership skills. Founded in 1989 and sponsored by the National Student Leadership Foundation, a 501(c)3 nonprofit organization dedicated to empowering and inspiring the next generation of leaders, the NSLC brings thousands of students together each summer for programs that offer hands-on, experiential learning across a range of academic and professional disciplines. 

NSHSS members will hear from students at UT about their transition to college, what it takes to be a successful student at UT, and what life is like on campus, with a live Q&A!

Continue to check back for more updates as additional sessions are confirmed!

NSHSS Scholarship Winners will be recognized, members will hear congratulatory remarks and then receive their own NSHSS honor medallion in our culminating MRC!
