Overview
One of the primary goals of NMHED’s College Access Challenge Grant includes the design and implementation of a robust, web-based college access planning portal. The “Carve Your Path” project will provide a [free] one stop shop resource of college and career exploration information to students and parents by providing a web-based solution that is interoperable and enables students as early as sixth grade to plan their future in higher education and the workforce.
