Finding Your Career Path

CORONAVIRUS ADVISORY

Whether your campus is doing in-person or remote schooling, High School Career Connect is available to support students in their college and career research and planning. We are ready to provide presentations, mentorship, and career and college resources to students, teachers, parents, and administrators.

To schedule an appointment, please call us at 940-369-5243 or email us at HScareerconnect@unt.edu.

At the core of HSCC is peer-to-peer mentorship.

HSCC’s mentors are UNT students. Having recently gone through the college-admission process, they understand HSCC's target audience. The mentors undergo extensive training from HSCC’s full-time staff, who have graduate-level degrees, mostly in educational counseling.

HSCC’s professional counselors oversee all aspects of the program, while the UNT student mentors facilitate career guidance. Mentors represent:

• UNT's degree programs, ensuring exposure to many disciplines
• UNT's diversity, as nearly fifty percent of our students identify as minorities

Our mentors are diverse in ethnicity and socio-economic status, personifying postsecondary access and persistence. Mentors are also prepared to discuss admissions and financial aid concerns, enabling them to assist participants in overcoming college access barriers.
