    My Fantasy College (E23230)

    Did you know there are about 4,000 colleges in the United States? With so many options out there, researching all the different aspects of a college can be overwhelming. This course will introduce students to what makes up a college, including types of colleges, factors to consider when selecting a college, and ways to get involved while on campus – all while creating their own “Fantasy College” along the way. With the help of a D214 Postsecondary Counselor and College Admissions guest speakers, students will work in groups to create a “Fantasy College" made up of the concepts covered in the class, and in the process, become more familiar with the type of college that will be a good academic, social, and financial fit for themselves.
