Description
Profile of a College-Ready School
Due Wednesday
In 1981 (updated in 2015), the Jesuit Secondary Education Association (JSEA) published a monograph now entitled Profile of the Graduate at Graduation (Jesuit Schools Network, 2015). The profile indicated five high-level categories with specific qualities included in each category. In 4-5 paragraphs, create a brief profile of a college-ready high school graduate for this discussion.
- Choose four or five categories and describe the college-ready high school graduate in relation to each of these categories. These categories can be academic, personal, and social.
- Include at least one quality per category.
Your profile should demonstrate an understanding of the definition of college readiness, college-readiness descriptors, and the four keys to college readiness. You may use quantitative and qualitative measures as part of your qualities to describe the skills, knowledge, and behaviors of a high school graduate who is ready for college.
Support your statements with evidence from the required studies and your research. Cite and reference your sources in APA style.

responsibility and life skills the abilities of a student to fit in the college environment.
