Spend time with the websites of institutions that teach topics and skills that interest your student. Your student can learn a lot about what the training will be like and what the career will entail.

If you have questions about entry to colleges and what courses they expect students to take in high school, ASK that COLLEGE’S ADMISSIONS counselors. Especially in the post-pandemic environment, many have removed standardized testing (SAT, ACT, etc.) and other accept varying grades.

In fact, most colleges track how many times a student personally contacts them. They then pay special attention to those applications because the student has demonstrated interest and commitment to that college.

Your student can identify these organizations using Naviance.
