University Counseling Program
The University Counseling program provides PCDGC students enrolled in the Dual Diploma with guidance and resources as they navigate the U.S. university admissions process. The program begins in 8th grade, when students are introduced to higher education opportunities and continues each year as students are guided through standardized testing, university applications, virtual university campus tours, and financial aid. Students work with counselors to develop their post-high school plan and select the university that best meets their needs.
