SUMMARY:Post-Secondary Search Lab
DESCRIPTION:Choosing where to apply is one of the most important decisions in the admissions process\, yet many students build their lists based on rankings\, reputation\, peer reviews\, or limited information. \nThis workshop guides students through thoughtful research to help them finalize a strategic application list that is the right fit for them. \nWe encourage students to come ready to do a research DEEP DIVE and go beyond general\, surface information. \nIn this hands-on workshop\, students will: \n\nIdentify their academic interests\, faculties\, majors\, and priorities.\nEffectively research post-secondary institutions and specific faculties and programs that align with their priorities\nUnderstand what they will be studying from 8:30-2:30 in each of their chosen programs over a four-year scope\nIdentify similarities and differences between different institutions in terms of academic majors and requirements.\nBuild a balanced list of facilities and programs by institutions (reach\, target\, and safety options)\nConstruct a list of application requirements and make a targeted timeline for the fall of grade 12\n\nWhile this is a group setting\, the course is designed for students to follow their own interests and research\, and Options Solutions consultants will offer individualized feedback.
