The Colleges Your Students Don’t Know, But Should
Webinar with Rob Mooring
There are thousands of colleges across the country, but many students—and even counselors—tend to focus on the same small group of “name brand” schools. In this dynamic and practical webinar, we’ll spotlight a diverse range of lesser-known colleges and universities that offer outstanding value, distinctive academic programs, strong support systems, and life-changing opportunities for students—particularly those from historically underserved backgrounds.
Whether you're looking to expand your students’ college lists, provide them with more affordable options, or simply introduce them to new possibilities they may not have considered, this session will leave you with a fresh set of go-to schools to recommend. Walk away with ready-to-use resources and renewed inspiration to help your students discover colleges that may not be on their radar—but should be.
