Graduation represents an intersection of innumerable paths.
Not everyone will choose the same path upon graduation; this is not only okay, but it is actually a very good thing! At GradBridge, we are a nonprofit organization striving to pair our students with the optimal educational or occupational opportunities for their goals and interests. In developing several partnerships with school districts, community organizations, and institutions of higher education throughout Alabama, we hope to provide students specialized assistance in achieving their goals upon high school graduation; we will help them achieve their dreams regardless of whether they conform to the path of a traditional university education.
Our Services
-
Goal Analysis
We want to understand and discuss the aspirations of students we consult. We can help those students find a route to achieving those goals.
-
Education About Education
We hope to dispel misconceptions about pursuing higher education, and we hope to teach unfamiliar students, families, and communities about open possibilities.
-
Seeking Financial Aid
Education is usually not free after the completion of high school. We will help students seek need-based and merit-based aid if they choose to pursue a higher level of education.
-
College Consulting
We aim to provide students with advice and guidance through the notoriously uncertain college admissions and selection process.
-
Career Connections
We are working to partner with local organizations to connect students with trade groups and businesses looking to hire new employees in Central and West Alabama.
-
Graduation Preparation
We want to act as an external resource students can turn to in order to ensure that they are adequately prepared for their lives after finishing high school.
