CQA has created the College Discovery Series for our students and families to better understand the multitude of college options across the country and abroad. The college search process can be overwhelming. This series is a brief tutorial for students to complete their comprehensive review of colleges and see all that is available. This week’s subject is: UNIQUE PROGRAMS
Group 1: COLLEGES THAT CHANGE LIVES
“Personalized, student-centered experiences are at the heart of every Colleges That Change Lives (CTCL) education. While the CTCL member schools all share that mission, they are otherwise very distinctive from one another. Whatever your heart (and mind!) desires, we invite you to search the CTCL colleges to find your very own transformative college experience.”- CTCL

Group 2: COLLEGES THAT CREATE FUTURES
“All 50 of the colleges showcased offer superb academics, but what makes them stand out are the programs and services they offer outside the classroom which offer their students real-world experience, collaborative opportunities with faculty, and networking opportunities with alumni, allowing them to graduate with outstanding job opportunities or acceptance to post-graduate studies at first-rate institutions.” -The Princeton Review
