For many high school students, college is the next big step. Luckily for seniors, Mrs. Murray isn’t the only source of information for the intimidating life change.
“Whether you’re a first-year student or an experienced alumni, Career Launch, our unique online platform, can help you customize your career journey,” UNLV announced. “The platform can be used to customize career and professional development, connect Rebels to relevant resources, and provide meaningful advice and opportunities.”
When students go from the top of the food chain of high school, to the metaphorical bottom of college, it is easy to feel overwhelmed or stressed. However, UNLV has plenty of resources in order to help soothe worries.
“UNLV is focused on success for its students, from orientation, through their time on campus, and into their chosen careers,” comments the UNLV website. “This includes a vibrant Honors College, access to academic and career advising, and an innovative curriculum that is responsive to workforce needs and focused on career readiness.”

“An array of internship and research opportunities also strengthens the academic experience, allowing students to engage directly with industry leaders and tackle pressing real-world issues alongside some of the world’s leading experts,” noted the UNLV website.
