2024-2025 College Application Toolkit

The Tennessee Higher Education Commission has partnered with Tennessee higher education institutions to provide institution-specific college application instructional videos. These videos, created by Tennessee colleges, walk students step-by-step through each college’s application process. This document provides links to the instructional video and college application for each participating college. The institutions listed are those that volunteered to create an application video. If the institution you or your students are looking for is not listed, please visit the institution’s website for access to their college application.
