Tekonsha High School sophomores had the opportunity to tour the University of Olivet on Tuesday, November 12th, as part our college and career readiness plan to get all students on the campus of a community college, trade school, university, and private college during their time as a high school student!
Students had the opportunity to walk around campus, learn about how to best prepare for college, and they even enjoyed lunch in the campus dining room. While students were walking around, they even played a game of "I spy" to see if they could find former Tekonsha students on campus!
Tekonsha Schools participates in the Olivet Direct! program, that allows for Tekonsha students with a 2.5 or higher GPA that are on track for high school graduation and have applied to Olivet to be automatically admitted! Additionally, students that have completed the FAFSA, have lived in Michigan for at least one year, and are eligible for the Michigan Advantage Scholarship and Pell Grant will receive financial award packages from the University of Olivet to cover at least the tuition and fees of their entering academic year!
