Description
Students will continue their pathway to researching colleges and trade programs. In this Unit, students develop an understanding that the work they put in now to researching strong colleges and universities will eventually lead to enrolling in a best-fit college and more importantly, set them up to attend a college that will support them through college graduation.
In this unit students will reflect on some of the criteria they already believe is important for the school they attend, understand college selectivity and determine their match, overmatch, and undermatch schools based on their GPA and ACT/SAT scores, re-examine the importance of graduation rate and why they need to be aware of it when choosing a college, recall what a major, minor, and concentration is, and explore different majors and how they relate to careers. This project allows students to dive deep into the schools of their choice, recognize if it is a good match for them, and identify if it is even financially feasible for them to attend.
