Start College on Campus this Fall. Talk to SUNY About Your Options
We know the pandemic has made planning for college especially challenging this year, and it may seem like one step too far right now. That’s why SUNY is making it easier than ever to apply with additional support, guidance, and resources to help you stay on track and start college—on campus—this fall.
We encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity, especially during SUNY Application Week from March 15-19.
You’ll be able to:
• Talk to a SUNY counselor 1:1 about your options, including financial aid to make college more affordable
• See if you’re eligible for application fee waivers, potentially saving up to $350
• Learn about COVID-19 safety – did you know SUNY campuses have much lower positivity rates than the state average?
• Find your place at SUNY’s 64 schools or explore online degrees
Make an appointment today.
The bottom line is, you shouldn’t have to put off college this year because of the pandemic. College pays off – bachelor’s degree holders earn an average of $400,000 more over their lifetime than high school graduates, and nearly 2/3 of all jobs today require some level of college education.
So take a small step today. You’ll thank yourself in two or four years.
Sincerely,
Elmira High School Counseling Department
