Take the plunge into college planning at Destination College
We all know that getting started on a new project is often the hardest part. With spring around the corner (yes, really!) high school juniors and their families may be starting to think about college planning while wondering where to begin. Answer: Destination College.
Destination College is Granite Edvance’s annual college planning event for high school juniors and their families. This free event includes college planning workshops, a college fair featuring representatives from more than 50 colleges and trade schools, and a chance to experience a college campus. It’s also a great first introduction to the Granite Edvance team and the ways they can help students on every step of their journey.
