On Saturday, March 28, 2026, NSHSS will welcome members and their families to an unforgettable Member Event at the University of California, Los Angeles!
This one-day event will include a networking breakfast, helpful information sessions, a College & Career Fair, and educational sessions. The event will end with the NSHSS Member Recognition Ceremony, where each member will be honored and receive an NSHSS medallion for their academic achievements!
This agenda is subject to change. Final details will be sent to ticket holders 2 days before the event.
Attendees will check in with a digital or printed copy of their tickets, and members will receive name badges.
Attendees will be able to gather information from College & Career Fair exhibitors. NSHSS will provide a catered continental breakfast for all event participants to enjoy while they speak to exhibitors and other members!
Engage with all of the educational resources and organizations present in the CCF to help inform your colleague pursuits and applications.
NSHSS will welcome attendees to campus; then, UCLA admissions staff or students will guide them through an informative presentation about the university.
Attendees will gain a clear understanding of how personalized college advising can give students a meaningful edge in the college application process. You’ll learn how one-on-one guidance from experienced advisors supports students at every stage, from crafting standout admissions essays to navigating financial aid and preparing for alumni interviews.
By the end of the session, you’ll understand how individualized advising helps students from all backgrounds approach college applications with confidence, clarity, and a strategic plan tailored to their goals.
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.
