With several educational opportunities popping up in recent years, including Young Adult Borough Centers (YABC), and several high schools geared towards an older crowd with classes taking place during the day and night, particularly the first of its kind Manhattan Comprehensive Night and Day High School (MCNDHS), there’s new hope for students who are overaged and under credited within New York City. But upon completion of their high school education, what’s next for these individuals? THECollegiate (“the website”) is a one-of-a-kind project that connects those individuals transitioning from secondary school to postsecondary life.

The website will provide resourceful information through peer-to-peer discussions, interviews, and material developed for students from colleges across New York City, along with resources that one may be unable to locate on their own using assets available from created works, along with those provided by college advisement offices within New York City, particularly the New York City Department of Education (NYCDOE).
