CaliforniaColleges.edu

At Ripon High School, we are committed to helping every student prepare for life after high school—whether that means attending a four-year university, community college, trade school, military service, or entering the workforce. One of the best tools available to support this journey is CaliforniaColleges.edu, the State of California's free college and career planning website.

Because Ripon High School is a CaliforniaColleges.edu partner school, every student already has an account! Students can simply click the "Sign in with Google" button and log in using their Ripon High School Google account—there's no need to create a new account.

Throughout high school, students will use CaliforniaColleges.edu to:

Explore careers that match their interests and strengths.
Research colleges, universities, and career training programs.
Track their progress toward meeting CSU and UC admission requirements (A-G).
Create a personalized college and career plan.
Complete important college and financial aid applications, including the FAFSA or California Dream Act Application.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to create their own free parent account to stay connected to their student's college and career planning. By creating an account, families can learn more about college admissions, financial aid, scholarships, and other resources that help students prepare for their future.

We encourage families to explore CaliforniaColleges.edu together and have ongoing conversations about goals, interests, and plans after graduation. Working together, we can help every Ripon High School student feel confident and prepared for whatever path they choose after high school.
