Web Seminar for Learning Express | High Schoolers -get info for online practice tests for a number of employment and educational endeavors! |
 www.college.gov |
College.gov was designed by students for students... It features first-person accounts of students who overcame challenges to going to college such as peer pressure, lack of family support, and financial barriers. It provides relevant, comprehensive information about why to go, how to go, and how to pay for college or other postsecondary education programs. Young people who may not have considered higher education a viable option will be engaged, informed, and inspired to create their own "roadmap" to college. We want to make sure that all students are aware of college.gov, and we need your help to make that happen. |
