Show Notes

Preparation before college is one of the strongest predictors of future success; but many high school students look at college readiness in terms of simply applying to and getting into a university. Acceptance is just the beginning. 

In this episode of College UnBound, we discuss the activities and outcomes students can expect to enjoy at our Summer Cohort.

Focus Collegiate's college-readiness experience, Summer Cohort is a metaphor for the college life. During three weeks in residence at a private dormitory in Boston’s Back Bay Neighborhood on Beacon Street, students get a taste for college. Through coursework, skills building, structured self-directed activities, and fun social events, students deepen self-awareness, build resilience, and develop their independent living skills.
