First-timers entering colleges and universities overseas for the upcoming academic year 2017 to 2018, are invited to attend the Barbados Community College’s (BCC) pre-departure orientation on Thursday, June 29. The annual event will take place in the BCC’s Counselling and Placement Centre from 9:30 a.m.

A key aim of the orientation is to assist persons in making the transition to an institution of higher learning overseas. It will also provide prospective students with a forum to make queries and receive information.

The orientation will cover areas such as socio-cultural adjustments; coping with homesickness; living on a college budget; and safety issues.

Individuals wishing to attend should register by contacting Faith Callender or Racquel Collymore at 426-2858 ext. 5139, 5136 or 5137. They may also email faith.callender@bcc.edu.bb, racquel.collymore@bcc.edu.bb; or counselling@bcc.edu.bb, no later than Monday, June 26.
