Now discuss:1. What are some questions you have about what you should be
doing to prepare for post-secondary education? Are there any task you can add to the list?

College Experts
• We have spent the last several sessions exploring college options. Today you will become an expert on a school.
• Divide students into small groups. You may choose to randomly group students or you can group them according to their interests.
• Each group should choose one of the following schools: (DO NOT DUPLICATE A SCHOOL):
-UofL -JCTC
-UofK -WKU
-NKU -Murray
-EKU
• If a group chooses a school not on the list, they will need to find their own information.
• Each group will research and present specific topics relating to the school. (refer to the group sheet)
• Your Advisor has information for each school and you should use available computers, phones, ipads, etc. for additional information.
• The PPT provides talking points for each group to follow.
