Students must carefully evaluate their options and think about what is best for them before deciding to enroll in college. Higher education is not the only way and there are many interesting alternatives.
27,270 students. That is how many students applied for the Utah Fits All Scholarship by the April 22nd deadline. Excitement for the program was evident as 10,617 students applied within the first twenty-four hours.
College will always be there. But allowing young adults to explore outside of traditional college allows college to be part of the plan, rather than the only plan.
Do not let these myths make you lose focus on what is important: an educational environment where every student, teacher, and parent has the opportunity to choose what is best for them.
