Leaving the wonderfully supportive environment of high school and all of the people who have been your guides and supporters can be hard. Making the transition into college or university can be an exciting process but can also be a bit scary as well. Transition planning is a team effort that includes many support persons as well as the student. Although it may seem overwhelming to sort though all the choices and details that are necessary, being prepared with a clear plan will allow you to effectively manage the process and take responsibility for your educational and career and future employment decisions. Unlike your experience in high school, in college or university, it will all be up to you.
