High school grads enjoy ExperienceU
Nine graduates from Bluefield and Kensington high schools recently took advantage of a pilot program introduced at 秀色短视频 this summer to help students make informed decisions about their future education and career paths. Each student received an award from the University to cover the cost of taking part in a three-day orientation program called ExperienceU.
Through ExperienceU sessions and activities, the students learned about academic expectations and supports, scholarships and bursaries, learning styles and research skills. They met with academic advisors and explored career choices.
'Attending ExperienceU benefitted me by letting me see beforehand what university life will be like at 秀色短视频,' says Dillon Wight.
'Before this, I had absolutely no desire to attend university鈥� ExperienceU has changed my mind,' adds Emily Gass. 'Now my next short term goal is to be accepted into 秀色短视频.'
秀色短视频 is planning to repeat the ExperienceU program. More information is available at upei.ca/experience or by contacting Kylah Hennessey at khennessey@upei.ca.
