The Takoma Park Recreation Department is sponsoring a trip to Tarboro, NC on Saturday March 14, 2015 to attend College Round Up. The College Round-Up is a program of the Education Division of The Black Heritage Museum & Cultural Center, Inc. and places its primary focus on assisting high school students who have felt that college was unattainable, or students who did not adequately prepare themselves (academically) for college but have a strong desire to attend. The College Round-Up program provides *face-to-face interviews* with colleges and universities that are prepared to make every effort to assist students with the application and financial aid process needed to attend their institutions. Representatives from admissions and financial aid departments have had tremendous success in placing students who have participated in the program. In addition to a prominent guest speaker and important community partners, career development professionals, mentors and counselors will be on hand throughout the day to assist students and families, in a positive environment, which will facilitate and greatly improve their chance for acceptance into college or university. It is strongly urged that high schools seniors bring multiple copies of their transcripts. The Colleges and Universities waive their application fees at the program only. The cost for the trip is $10 per person. We also suggest that a parent or guardian attend the College Round-Up with their child so that everyone involved can have a clearer picture of the financial issues the students face. I have attached a copy of our flyer in case you may have any students within your programs that could benefit from this trip. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
