COLLEGE CAMP: A Training Program for Parents

Helping your high school student select a college: Parents, are you ready? 

College Camp is a FREE seminar for parents of high school students.

Few decisions are as important as choosing a college. Assisting your son or daughter with this crucial choice is one of the more challenging tasks you will face as a parent. Aurora High School, Cuyahoga Community College's Eastern Campus, Hiram College and The University of Akron have joined forces to provide the insider information parents need to select the best college or university for their student's future.  Participants will learn about the college selection process by participating in conversations with a high school guidance counselor, college and university admission representatives and a professional in the financial aid field.
