Getting ready for college starts before you apply, and continues well after you get to campus. You have to be prepared academically, of course, but also mentally. You need to be ready to make some major changes in the ways you study, think, and make life decisions.
What does it take to truly succeed in college? What types of academic and social situations are new college students typically unprepared for—even if they’ve always gotten good grades? What are the “unwritten curriculums” of higher education? What does a college student need to know about managing time and money? And, most importantly, how can you prepare yourself to make the most of this potentially life-changing period of exploration, growth, and discovery?
Hosted by professors at Stanford University and the University of British Columbia, this free 75-minute webinar is intended for students and families navigating this high school-to-college transition. A panel of university educators and experts in student academic success will answer your pre-submitted questions, and share their experiences of what it takes to succeed in community college and in public and private universities in North America.
Submit your questions in advance for a chance to have them answered live. (NOTE: Once you register, you will receive a link where you can submit questions for the panel.)
