DCAN Update | May 22, 2020
A LETTER TO YOU:
We know you’ve got a lot on your mind. Maybe you feel a strange mix of stress, anxiety, excitement and boredom. You’re probably trying to figure out what to do and what happens next.

It is okay to be confused about moving forward. 

We’re here to tell you that your plans after graduation are still possible. Even if it doesn’t feel like it. We don’t have all the answers yet, though.

That’s because your high schools and colleges are still figuring out details.
  • We've answered some of your questions in this Senior FAQ.

Many colleges have already updated next steps and deadlines.

For right now, take it one step at a time:

Here’s what we need from you: 
  • Hope and belief in yourself.
  • Check out the resources in this newsletter.

We have so much love and hope for you.

Dr. Ashley Johnson
Executive Director, DCAN
