Manage episode 371768983 series 3469014
In this episode, Higher Ed Hacks welcomed GEAR UP Education Coordinator, Connie Arneson, and together we explored the many benefits of getting a degree, how to get on the path to college, and the resources our creator, Oklahoma GEAR UP, provides for university-bound students.
During our conversation, we discussed the reasons why it’s good to go to college, both short-term and long-term. From job security to increased earnings, getting a degree can have an immensely positive effect on your career and life path. We also covered how students can get started preparing for college and the resources GEAR UP offers to support them along the way. From selecting the right college to financial planning to college orientation reimbursement, GEAR UP is here to help students succeed. High school students in GEAR UP districts can connect with their school specialist today to learn more and get started!
