Juniors and seniors are going to be able to visit with representatives from more than 60 colleges and universities at Thursday’s Find your Future: Texas Colleges Night from 6-8 p.m. at Panther Creek High School.

“One of the goals is to bring awareness of post-secondary education, whether it would be college or trade or community college or whatever the case may be,” M-R counselor Angela Lewis said. “It’s just an opportunity for us to bring resources into the school from the district and allow students to understand what is available.”

Having dozens of college representatives in the same place at the same time makes for something of a one-stop shop for prospective college applicants. 

“I think this event is beneficial for students going to college,” junior Natalia Azizi said. “They can educate themselves on the colleges and gain knowledge and information about what kind of school they’re going to apply [to].”

For senior Yuktha Perneti, this event may help her as she goes through the college admissions process. 

“I feel like I’ll have some more clarity and guidance for the Texas schools I’m applying to,” Perneti said.
