College Center » Welcome

Welcome

Welcome to Marshall's College Center!
Our job is to assist students in all matters related to college admissions and the financial aid process. Our goal is to help every graduate of Marshall explore the different opportunities that exist for post-secondary life and create realistic goals to pursue. We are here to help students decide what to study, discover alternative options to a traditional college pathway, and select the best “fit” college to meet their academic and personal goals. Please feel free to contact us to schedule an appointment and discuss your future!
 
The College Center provides students with guidance in planning their life after high school. We are here to assist students with the college and financial aid process as well as making the most of their post secondary opportunities such as college and career planning, internships and summer programs. Students and parents should check this page (and our FloDesk) frequently for updates on opportunities and events. 
 
For regularly updated information, please see our College Center FloDesk page
