College Dreams
Start NOW
Workshop
The College Dreams Start NOW program is tailored for students in grades 8-10, and offers a proactive approach to college preparation, starting before junior or senior year. It's designed to give students and their parents a comprehensive understanding of the college admissions process.
This program simplifies the complexities of admissions, providing clear guidance on various college types and options, financial aid options, and helps to align college choices with your child's ambitions. The program addresses common issues such as students' lack of interest in college and turns this into enthusiasm, converting parental anxiety into confidence.
Through interactive online activities, the program will assist students in setting achievable goals and developing a roadmap for success in higher education. The vital role of parents in these crucial years is emphasized, aiming to strengthen the parent-child relationship as you work together towards college goals.
