“We are truly proud of our partnership with College Visions, and equally as proud to support its students on their journeys in higher-ed. You’re right, deciding to go out-of-state is not easy. It’s tough being away from our families, and our support systems. At Southwest, we aim high and take pride in setting goals that can be reached through commitment, diligence and believing in one’s self! I see students’ decisions to ”venture out” exactly like a goal. It can be done! The network of support that CV provides has definitely made these choices a reality for thousands of students.” – Jill Simonson Luciano
