Navigating the Road to College
Continuing Seminar Series – November 13, 2011
SYLVAN IS HOSTING A FREE INFORMATIONAL SERIES FOR PARENTS, STUDENTS AND THE COMMUNITY
The turnout at our last seminar was wonderful! - Thanks to everyone who attended.
Our next free seminar is November 13th and is packed with the information you need. Join our guest speaker and local expert, Maureen Gillick, as she answers your questions about PSAT/SAT/ACT, AP Exams, the cost of college, scholarships and grants, choices in today’s economy, why it is important to be prepared, and much, much more.
Since 2006, Sylvan in collaboration with Project:LIFE, has been offering the “Navigating” series as a FREE community service. Our goal is to help as many families as possible. In order to keep it free to everyone, we need your help to "Get the word out" to your friends and neighbors.
Please share this with your friends.
This seminar includes a series of “Did you Know?” facts and questions. It addresses the realities of where standardized tests fit on the road to college acceptance. This seminar is not an SAT review class; rather it outlines key terms, timelines and procedures.
Understanding and Planning for Standardized Tests
November 13, 2011 - 3:00 - 5:00 pm
Attendees walk away knowing the difference between the PSAT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and the ACT. We offer guidelines addressing which test may be best for a student and recommendations of when tests need to be taken.
Discover the answers to testing questions like:
* How often should I take them?
* What’s considered a good/competitive score?
* What are some of the current changes in college admissions?
* How do college personnel consider standardized test scores as part of the acceptance decision?
* How important are AP Exams in the selection process?
* How do College Placement Tests affect the courses you take in college?
This seminar addresses all of these questions and more, including, how standardized test scores directly impact students’ potential for scholarship and financial aid.
Navigating the Road to College seminars are packed with information and answers to many of your questions. The upcoming presentation is on Sunday, November 13th, 3:00 - 5:00 pm at the Wakefield Sylvan Learning located at 36 S. County Commons Way, Wakefield, RI, in The Village at South County Commons Shopping Center across RT 1 from The Prout School.
Attendees of this seminar qualify for a free SAT/ACT skills assessment at Sylvan Learning Center in Wakefield, RI. Students and their parents are invited to attend a complimentary, no-obligation, ½ hour private consultation to review a comprehensive computer analysis and personalized plan specially designed to promote student success.
