RACC Case study materials

Plymouth Shores University
Case Study

The Case Study college night is an engaging and effective way to discuss the college application process and is commonly used in California.  College representatives will lead parents and students through a mock admission committee using the four cases below.  The exercise will point out the intricacies of the process and the importance of assembling a strong application.  Guests will gain insight and understanding as to what is valued in the application.  The Case Study program concludes with either a mini college fair or a panel discussion.
