Omniac Education Launches Commit2College.com
Over the last two years, Omniac Education has embarked on a number of different projects to help kids understand the college admissions process. We've held free ACT and SAT exams, hosted college nights, and traveled far and wide to explain the mystery that is financial aid. And while we've always had a focus on preparing students for the ACT and SAT, we see it as our primary mission to aid college bound kids with the entire process.
Yet, I see time and time again that students have difficulty making the college process a priority early enough to make a difference. This is especially true during the summer months of July and August. Between summer jobs and the start of the next school year, most students watch summer vanish before they've had any chance to use it!
We know kids can make a difference for themselves over the summer. We know it requires just the smallest push to make it happen. So...we're going to give away some prizes to kids who are willing to use their summer in a way that will make their college apps great.
Today we are launching Commit 2 College, a free program that enters students in a drawing to win an iPod Touch when they complete some basic college preparation. Entering students will need to take a free ACT/SAT, fill out a basic college questionnaire, and meet with an Omniac College Consultant to talk about their options for college. There's no purchase required to win, nor do students have to pay for any part of the college prep we are offering.
So head on over to http://www.commit2college.com/ to enter if you are a New Mexico/Arizona High School student in the Class of 2009 or 2010. We'd love to see your test score and help you understand the whole process!
It's time to commit!
