PLAN FOR THE FUTURE DURING COLLEGE GO! CAMPAIGN – Straight From The Senate

For many young Hoosiers, the path to a productive and successful future will involve a college degree. Likewise, Indiana’s future depends on the hard work and robust education of our students.

To assist families in planning ahead for college, the Indiana Commission for Higher Education has launched its annual campaign, College GO!

From children just starting school, to teenagers looking toward their next step after high school graduation, or adults planning to return to school, there are specific steps to take now in order to be on the path toward college and career success.

As a part of the College GO! Campaign, the Learn More Indiana website has been updated with many resources available to students and families preparing for college.
