Postsecondary Planning

There is much to do when planning your education and training after high school. Students have many opportunities for education and training after high school:  
  • Attend a 4-year college/university and pursue a Bachelor's Degree.       
  • Attend a community college, transfer to a 4-year college/university after 1 or 2 years, and pursue a Bachelor's Degree.  
  • Attend a community college and pursue a diploma, certificate, and/or Associate Degree.
  • Attend a "career school" and pursue a diploma, certificate, and/or Associate Degree.  
  • Join the military and receive training through their programs, including ROTC programs at state colleges/universities.

    Any combination of the above items.  
    Parents and students must do their "homework" and research these options thoroughly.  Post-secondary education is a big investment and, therefore, requires careful planning, research, and investigation in order to make the best decisions possible.
