College Bus Tour 2013
College Bus Tour 2013 was a great success! Each year, Companies That Care coordinates college visits for AIM High juniors and seniors so that they can visit the colleges and universities to which they are interested in applying. The bus left our front door in the West Loop at 5AM on Tuesday, September 19, and for 3 days, 21 AIM High students traveled through 3 states to visit 6 colleges. The host schools included Washington University, Harris Stowe University, the University of Iowa, Wartburg College, Knox College, and Monmouth College.

The College Bus Tour concluded with a debriefing session at which students, parents, and mentors discussed the students' insights about the experience and prepared to start the application process.
