Searching for colleges that are a good fit for your student can be complicated.

There are academic, geographical, and financial factors to consider, among many others.

LGBTQ+ Jewish students have their own unique set of considerations.

For some, the increased polarization over the last few years is making it more challenging to find colleges that are inclusive, supportive, and welcoming.

At this workshop, we will discuss how to find such campuses.

We will explore the following questions:

• What are the most impactful ways in which universities can support LGBTQ+ Jewish students?

• What characteristics should you be looking for in the LGBTQ+ and Jewish communities themselves?

Parents will leave this interactive workshop with a clear path forward in determining how inclusive and supportive a school will be for their student.

No cost, registration required.

Zoom link will be shared upon registration.

Rachel Oshinsky, the workshop facilitator, is the founder of Purple Goat College Consulting and Associate Member of Independent Educational Consultants Association.

Prior to serving as an independent college counselor, she worked as a K-12 classroom teacher and a higher education professional.

As a college counselor, she specializes in working with LGBTQ+ teens and the Jewish community.
