College Planning Workshop

Though May seems to be a long time from now, for high school seniors in and around Plymouth Canton, May is fast approaching.

Most colleges and universities will begin delivering their decisions regarding admissions to high school seniors next month. But rather than pure joy, letters notifying kids that they’ve been admitted to the program(s) of their choice might bring a little anxiety with their exciting news.

On February 1st, Parros College Planning is offering a FREE college planning workshop that might just help alleviate some of the unease parents and their college-bound kids in the area might have about the expense of higher education. Don’t wait until your student is a senior in high school to start planning.
