KnowHow2GOcan help students make college a reality
EducationQuest Foundation is proud to sponsor the national KnowHow2GOcollege-access campaign in Nebraska. This campaign was developed by the American Council on Education, Lumina Foundation for Education and the Ad Council to inform 8th-10th graders about four steps they need to take to make college a reality.
Step 1. Be a pain – in a good way. Find an adult to help you with college planning.
Step 2. Push yourself. Take rigorous coursework in high school and get involved in extracurricular activities.
Step 3. Find the right fit. Discover schools that match your career interests and skills.
Step 4. Put your hands on some cash. Apply for scholarships and financial aid.
