Colleges That Change Lives (CTCL)

In addition to collaborative learning environments, committed teaching faculty, high levels of student engagement and participation, and successful graduation rates that help students pursue their future goals quickly, the personal attention students receive at CTCL schools is priceless.

Equally, CTCL works to dispel publicly held myths about college choice, particularly the notion that college choices are severely limited to today's high school students, by hosting information sessions nationwide and coordinating outreach efforts with high school counselors and college counseling agencies alike.

From their debut in 1998, these CTCL events have been offered at no charge to the attendees, and they have been extremely well attended, continuing to attract standing-room-only audiences across the U.S. To support parents, students, and counselors who are unable to attend our events, the CTCL web site provides valuable information, news and resources, which address current issues in higher education as well as common misperceptions about the college search process.
