Destination: College opens roadmap to higher education
Collin is hosting Destination: College for the second straight year from 6-8:30 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 9, at the Spring Creek Campus Conference Center.
 |
| The Rev. Isiah Joshua, of Plano's Shiloh Missionary Baptist Church, spoke at last year's Destination: College |
Destination: College is a parent’s roadmap to negotiating the sometimes complex route to college. The session will address standardized tests, applications and financial aid and the strain college can put on a family’s financial scene.
The event is an opportunity for parents to learn more about college no matter the destination of their child. A light dinner will be served and a question-and-answer portion will be held after the session.
Also, parents who attend Destination: College and intend to send their children to Collin will be entered into a drawing for tuition scholarships.
Seating is limited. Confirm a reservation by noon, Monday, Feb. 6, by calling 972.377.1750 or 972.881.5770, or e-mailing compass@ccccd.edu
