11th grade students visit SUNY Albany
East-West continuously plans college trips for our students in their last years of high school. It is a great opportunity to gain an understanding about the various options they have when choosing the college they wish to attend. Through these trips, students can explore their interests regarding majors and several other aspects of college life. It is important for students to participate in these trips because they can open their eyes to what their future might be.
A college trip to SUNY Albany was organized on March 24, 2011 by Ms.Park to which all sophomores and juniors were welcomed. We were able to visit the whole campus as well as gain insight on what the college has to offer. It was a great chance for our students to understand life at SUNY colleges, ask questions, and think about whether they would want to consider this type of college.
Once we’re seniors, we will have to make these crucial decisions related to college. Our own East-West 2011 seniors have already gone through this process and have began receiving acceptance letters! College trips have had an influence on their decisions so we encourage students to participate.
