C1 - Purposeful College and Career Search Sites for the Post-Millennial Generation - Scoir & YouScience
Session Description
Generation Z students are much more purposeful in their college selections. They are cost-conscious, exhaustive researchers highly focused on outcomes. Yet traditional college and career search sites fail to provide the purpose and direction they seek. Scoir and YouScience have now partnered to combine deep analytics and beautifully designed software that enables students to learn more about themselves, explore careers, and discover best fit colleges. This presentation and open discussion will include college counselors sharing firsthand perspectives on using these tools to guide students through the college admissions process.
