UCAS supports students as they prepare for college and life beyond high school.

UCAS has individual College & Career Readiness meetings with every student every year, where students:

  • set their schedule for both high school and their next steps to college, and
  • work closely with UVU counselors to make sure they are getting the right classes for their college degree.

UCAS has a leadership class in every grade. During senior year, students fill out job applications, prepare resumes, and related next steps, almost like a "transitioning to adulthood" course.
