IN ADDITION TO ASSISTANCE WITH COLLEGE ADMISSIONS, THE COLLEGE READINESS CURRICULUM ALSO FOCUSES ON VALUES AND GUIDING PRINCIPLES. THOSE VALUES DIRECT THE CREATION OF EACH SCHOLARS' PERSONAL VISION AND MISSION STATEMENTS, FUNCTIONING AS GUIDES FOR GOAL SETTING AND MAKING TOUGH CHOICES ABOUT PERSONAL LIFE, COLLEGE, AND CAREER.
