Find Your College Fit – Our Sophomores Visit Rauxa

Our sophomore high school students recently participated in a workshop with Rauxa employees and First Graduate® volunteers called “Find Your Fit”. During this workshop, students took the first concrete step in selecting the colleges they will be applying to.

By working one-on-one with a volunteer, students talked through an activity about their greatest priorities in a college, and started coming up with a list of what schools they want to research. Students gained a deeper understanding of what elements to look for in a college, as well as explored college search tools which will help them research their chosen school. Students will continue working on their college research throughout the semester and will present their research to staff and peers at the end of the semester.

It was an amazing event – a huge thank you to Rauxa and their amazing employees!
