Description

In collaboration with Goddard Riverside Options Center, this college readiness webinar series will provide college advisors guidance on how to ensure that the student chooses the best fit option for their postsecondary needs by guiding them on how to assess a good-fit college or other postsecondary option. Some of this is done by helping the students to identify key features of a school or program like, type of institution; admissions process; and credentials offered.
