College Bound Program

When we ask students what they want to do after high school, over 90% of them say they want to go to college. Yet, we know from experience that most of them won’t make it to college for two primary reasons:
1) they didn't take the right classes in high school or
2) they didn’t start early to plan for college.

Our College Bound Program is designed to help parents to know what classes their students should take in high school in order to be well prepared for college.

It’s New!
We are encouraging students in the 8th or 9th grade to sign up. We’ll cover everything from what classes to take in high school, PSAT, ACT, SAT to Financial AID, grants and scholarships.

College Visits
One of the advantages of participating in the College Prep program is going on a tour of several colleges and universities. In the past we’ve gone to Historically Black Colleges and Universities in the south. Next spring, the tour will take us to three states and the District of Columbia. You get the details when you sign up. Sign up today by calling, 440-323-3364 x24 or email pogbuji@lcul.org.
