Program helps Native students prepare for college
Tuesday, April 13, 2004

A program called College Horizons helps Native students prepare for the college-admissions process.

Native students participate in a five-day workshop that helps narrow down their college choices, understand financial aid and become successful test takers. Organizers call it a "crash course" that brings college admissions officials directly to the students.

The program has seen success. According to director Whitney Laughlin, 98 percent of participants go on to four-year colleges.

Three colleges will host the session in June. Applications and more information can be found at http://www.whitneylaughlin.com/horizons.html.
