The 8th Grade Pathways to GVSU program was established to prepare students early for the academic and personal challenges of high school, provide career exploration opportunities, support their development, promote equity and access, and strengthen community ties.
We address this challenge, and the challenge of overall student success by providing students with opportunities to gain awareness and knowledge about higher education. When we break down the barriers in front of students and connect them to supportive people early on, they gain the tools to become successful leaders on the Grand Valley State University campus.
