The Overnight College Trip

The colleges that the students visited were Cornell University, Ithaca College, Alfred State University, and Alfred University. The students were taken on a tour of each campus and had the opportunity to see the different programs each school has to offer them. Along the tour students began seeing things that had caught their eyes in ways would lead them to applying to The colleges to that they witness. They also got a little taste of what college life is like, and what surprises are in store for them in a new chapter in finding there true calling in life.
