Reducing the Stress of College Decision-Making

Looking BEYOND College BEFORE College
LIVE EVENT: Interactive Talk with PRIYA RANA KAPOOR, MMFT
CAREER & TRANSITION COACH & former Director, USC London Office
It seems that all academic roads lead to college entrance. The stress can start as early as Kindergarten. Recently, in the news, we have seen the pressure that parents are putting on themselves, each other, and their children to get into elite universities ... But what's it all for?
Join Priya Rana Kapoor, career coach and former director of the USC London Office as she highlights some of the myths around the chase for the "right" college. She will also share some tools that families can use to brainstorm around the student's future, including possible careers. In turn, this will guide them into being more focused on the education they are going to need to achieve their goals.
Instead of only looking into the immediate future of where our children are going to go to college, we can also look at the bigger picture and help them figure out who they are, what they want, and how they are going to get it. Having a plan not only reduces stress but also saves time and money in the long run.
