What is a Professional Studies Program? |
|
A Professional Studies Program is a total immersion approach to education that integrates English, Government and Career Exploration into one program of study. The program places high school seniors in the actual working environment of their preferred career area. In addition, while enrolled in the New Visions Legal Professions program, students have the oppotunity to earn a total of nine (9) college credits through an agreement with Cayuga Community College. This results in an actual college transcript that the student my apply towards his/her college of choice. Students receive experience in planning their own schedules and balancing priorities, as well as in dealing with the consequences of those decisions. In short, they are introduced to the world of a college freshmand while receiving the individual attention and academic support of a high school senior. The Legal Professions course meets at Lattimore Hall in downtown Auburn from 10:00 am-2:00 pm Monday through Friday. |
