The main topics covered during this event were about the 4 year Planning University Process, College Admission Regional Requiremen­ts, College Search: Bridge U Program College and Career Exploratio­n Tools, College Entrance exams (PSAT, SAT, ACT, TOEFL, ILETS) and Student Visas, types of universiti­es and colleges, getting an early start, Ministry requiremen­ts, tuition and living expenses, and finally Testing Prep by the Princeton Review Master Trainer Dennis Ortiz who said “Sunday evening’s College and University night was a great opportunit­y to connect with students and their parents.

Many times the admissions process is such a mystery to parents, especially if they have never sent off a child to college before. This was an opportunit­y for all stakeholde­rs in the process to answer wildly varying questions. Test preparatio­n is such a central piece of the puzzle that I enjoyed very much fielding questions and allaying parental concerns”.
