College Readiness Guide
I have seen several posts here about 18 year olds who are reluctant to talk about their future - so I thought I would let you know about a tool you might want to check out.
The College Readiness Guide at www.asd-dr.com outlines academic skills, self-advocacy skills, life skills and even self confidence skills that teens/ adults need to be successful in college.
There is also a checklist with a range from 1 to 5 to help decide how prepared students are.
If you want your child to attend college - no matter what age they are - this is a great resource to figure out where to focus efforts. Our kids often benefit from a step by step program to help them learn new skills and having a plan can help it feel less overwhelming for everyone.
The guide is free - you just have to put in your email address.
