Join CCHE in welcoming Jon as he presents "Get Set for College". Meet at the Portage Lake Library Community Room Thursday, May 13 at 6:30 pm.

For the past 11 years, Jon has delivered the Get Set for College presentation for a variety of audiences across the Midwest.  This is a partnership program between the higher education professional and the home schooling community.  Jon serves as a advocate for all levels of post-secondary degrees to help strengthen the educational and career planning curriculum being delivered to students.  The steps covered in the presentation include:

-Knowing yourself & your reasons for attending college (completing an individual academic inventory)
-Considering different college characteristics (focus on the right fit for the student/self-evaluation)
-List, visit & compare different schools (what is & what isn't a campus visit)
-Applying for admission & meeting all deadlines (when to begin, what to do & how to do it) -Developing a plan to pay for higher education (scholarships, financial aid & other sources of funding)
-Reviewing & finalizing plans for future higher education (tech school, community college, university, etc)

Bring your questions and invite a friend.
