“So You Want To Go To College?”

We will explore how to successfully complete the College Application, Admission and Financial Aid process. The virtual program will be facilitated by expert staff from Penn Admissions and Penn Financial Aid offices, as well as facilitators from College Thoughts, and the Philadelphia College Prep Roundtable. Finally, the students will have the opportunity to earn community service credits needed for graduation by participating in the City-Wide Donation Project.
