Selective College Week
Selective College Week, held every fall and spring semester, features workshops and information sessions to help students prepare to apply to selective admissions colleges and universities. Admissions representatives from selective and Ivy League institutions provide information sessions reviewing the admissions process and provide tips to help students prepare a strong application. Workshops hosted by BHCC Transfer staff help students explore selective college options and encourage participating in the Commonwealth Honors program, honors societies, and other extracurricular, academic and community engagement activities that will enhance their competitiveness at selective admissions institutions.
