Finding Your Fit: How to Choose a Major and Build a Dream College List

“What are you going to study? Where are you going to go?”

For many students, these questions show up long before they are ready to answer them.

If your student does not have a clear major or know every school they want to apply to yet, you are not alone.

Not knowing yet is normal. With the right approach, it can actually be an advantage.

Join us for this webinar to learn how thoughtful exploration leads to clarity and a stronger college list.
