Not many people know how to party and “cut loose” like the College Experience. This is exactly what they did on the evening of Thursday, July 19, 2018! The Elks Club in Albany was kind enough to host all of the current students, alumni, and the participants of our first Summer Exchange Program.
What comes after graduation? Many College Experience students, in fact most, choose to remain in Albany. They maintain friendships with their fellow and former graduates, form romantic partnerships, and some get married.
Through our C2L Program, the College Experience support staff offers dedicated transition support and guidance, helping students in the year after graduation with apartment leases and job placements, and then literally forever after as members of the Living Resources community.
