Getting a college education requires a lot of time, effort and careful planning by parents and students working in tandem with each other. It provides knowledge and skills students will use for the rest of their lives.
With more than three million college admission tests administered each year, the SAT and ACT are two of the most important exams that a high school student will ever take. While taking these tests is critical to a student’s acceptance into college, students must also begin taking into account what college they would like to attend and more importantly, what they will do with the degree they earn once they graduate from that college.
The Sylvan Learning Centers of Clinton, Flemington and Hamilton, New Jersey are hosting an event for all High School students and their parents to talk with admissions counselors from Mercer County Community College, Raritan Valley Community College and Warren County Community College, along with a transfer counselor from Centenary College, amongst others. The event will be held at the Flemington Sylvan Learning Center located at 301 Walter E. Foran Boulevard on Thursday, November 10th from 10am to noon. Most New Jersey public schools are closed that day for teacher conventions, so it is an excellent opportunity for students to begin their college planning.
Students will have the opportunity to learn from these counselors what kinds of courses their local community colleges provide, what kinds of tests they will need to take (including the SAT) for even these colleges, and how to make the transition from a Community College to a 4-Year college seamlessly and in a relaxed atmosphere. Sylvan will also be on-hand to provide information about the college preparation services they offer.
RSVP's are accepted, but walk-ins are encouraged! Please call your local center for more information.
