Using this Site to Help Students
Help students and clients discover their strengths and find the right school. Walk
them through the steps of applying and paying for college and much more.
And if they set up an account, returning site visitors can find their results under
My Stuff.
Based on the States’
Career Clusters Initiative, this tool can get your student thinking about
possible career options.
Find out what your client’s chosen career pays and how much demand she will
find for those skills.
After narrowing down which path a student wants to follow and which college to attend,
he is ready to launch into the next steps: admissions, financial aid, campus visits
and more.
College students are more likely to drop out due to personal debt and money management
issues than low grades. Help your students get started toward financial health and
to locate sources of funds to pay for college.
