Postsecondary Opportunities for High School Students (Virginia Department of Education, VDOE)

Description:

To prepare Virginia’s students for postsecondary education or to meet employers’ expectations of candidates for entry-level jobs House Bill 1299 and Senate Bill 738 (2022 General Assembly) charged the Virginia Department of Education (VDOE) and the State Council of Higher Education for Virginia (SCHEV) with collecting information that assists high school students in making more informed decisions about their futures after graduating from high school. This ensures that such students are aware of the costs and benefits of different educational and certificate programs.

This webpage page provides information on preparing, applying, and paying for college, as well as information on degrees and labor-market career projections.
