More about PREPHQ:
Tempe Prep now has a PREPHQ web site to organize the details needed for students’ college and scholarship applications. All TPA high school students are eligible for an account, and much information is available even without logging into the website. For those students that log in, all information is private. PREPHQ does not sell or give away any information about Tempe Prep students. This software is FREE, as long as students register for the system and use it. PREPHQ is funded by organizations like The College Loan Corporation, and a small ad (not a pop-up) will appear on the website, www.prephq.com/?id=aztempe. See Mrs. Davies if you need help getting registered. It is highly recommended that parents use their student’s id and password to view information on this site.

PREPHQ contains information about:

Seniors -
Seniors generate application entries from their College List on PREPHQ. As College Counselor, I use this to track transcript requests, due dates, mid-year reports, and acceptance/waitlist/denied application status. It is also possible to track scholarships listed in the Scholarships section of PREPHQ. Most of the Scholarship opportunities are for seniors. Many have nothing to do with GPA or test scores. The resume developed in the junior year may be needed for college applications and/or scholarships. Registered students will receive an email when a due date is approaching for an application, or a college on the student’s College Llist is due to visit TPA. Update all college application and scholarship information in May for graduation ceremonies.
