Block Party

Our multi-session events are for students, families, CBO advisers, counselors, and teachers. Block Parties highlight College Greenlight partner colleges presenting admissions and financial aid topics that will help students successfully navigate their college search. These events frequently include panels of current college students to offer a look into what college is really like.

Block Parties are one- or two-night events hosted by admissions staff or College Greenlight staff on Wednesdays and Thursdays at 4 PM Central.
