*This is why getting a college degree is so important*

Although many recent college grads face significant challenges finding a good job in their chosen field, having a degree still gives young workers an edge, especially in terms of pay.

A college degree still provides an edge when it comes to finding a good job, but a person's major may be just as important to career stability, research suggests.

We continue doing our part of helping our young people apply for colleges. A week after our recommendation letter, Jenny received her offer letter from University at Albany.

Congrats Jenny and to the many others out there doing what they need to do make sure they go to college.

We are here for you and remember that our help is FREE.

We are always looking for volunteers as well!
