Why is it important to be college ready?
Various studies estimate that lack of college preparedness cost our nation’s economy from 3.7 billion to $13 billion a year in lost wages, poor worker productivity, increased spending on social programs and direct cost to provide remediation (EdNews.org 10/14/07). Think about it, “An Investment in knowledge pays the best interest” (Benjamin Franklin).
Preparation is everything! Get help while you are still in high school!
