In case you missed our last family/parent meeting on Jan 30th, we learned about the college admissions overview in general and specifically heard from four local colleges about their admissions process and the many programs that they offer. The four colleges in attendance were Monroe College, BCC, LIU Brooklyn and Manhattan College. It was a great talk and they shared a lot of great information with us. Please check it out with the link below. You can only access the video through this link as it is not public. https://youtu.be/ixw_cxCLtWE
