ASVAB
WELCOME TO THE HAVELOCK HIGH SCHOOL ASVAB INFORMATION PAGE.
Before choosing or exploring a career, you need to spend some time finding out about yourself. Whether you're a student planning to go to college, a vocational school, or the military, or you're just not sure what you want to do yet, the ASVAB Career Exploration Program can set you on the right course for a satisfying career.
Additionally, The U.S. Armed Forces have high standards for enlistment.
An important part of a recruiter’s job is to screen applicants to ensure they measure up. High school students who are interested in enlisting in the armed forces need to take the ASVAB through their high school. This ensures unlimited access to the exam. Should a high school student choose to take ASVAB through a recruiter's office, they are automatically limited to only 3 different testing sessions, no matter what setting they take the exam. ONLY SIGN UP TO TAKE THE ASVAB THROUGH HAVELOCK HIGH SCHOOL. If you are a senior and you are denied access to a testing session because seats are closed, please put in a counselor referral form for Ms. Mendes ASAP using the following link: https://forms.gle/axB27Y72cxboUcd2A
