Historically, barely half of the students who enter four-year colleges in the United States ever graduate. While cost and affordability are understandably blamed for this failure to finish, factors associated with a destination orientation in the college selection process are often at the core ill-fated decision-making. In this webinar, we will consider the value of a student-centered orientation to college planning that begins with an emphasis on reflection and finding purpose, and follows with finding colleges that make sense to the student—that meet the five elements of the best college fit.
