Live Q&A on navigating college admissions during COVID-19 is today

How do I start my college research if I can’t visit? What can my student do for activities outside the classroom if they can’t leave the house?

College admissions have always been complex, and COVID-19 has only made the process even more stressful. As an employee, you and your family have access to several resources to help you navigate the college admissions and financial planning system. This month, Bright Horizons College Coach is offering a live video Q&A to help VUMC employees and their children work through college admissions challenges and make the most of time at home to stay on track and be successful. This free online event is suggested for parents and guardians of students in grades 8-12.
