September is College Application Month, and several Tennessee colleges and universities are making it easier to apply by waiving application fees!

Whether you’re ready to submit your first application or add another school to your list, now is a great time to take that next step.

Check out these free application opportunities throughout September and talk with your Ayers counselor if you need help getting started! 🎓
