“College isn’t just about the end result. It’s also about the means, the process, the path you take to earn your degree, whom you meet, and who inspires and mentors you: what happens during the stay of four years of college is what counts.”

About Me

As a current debate on the issue of college affordability continues to incite many students and families to reassess the value of college education, it is necessary for them to revisit their preconceived notion of college education and to be smart about college choice that can hugely impact and change students’ lives. In the midst of the college admissions frenzy, the Vine was founded to bring a meaningful change to the community where the heated competition discourages and dispirits many young minds, and its mission centers on discovering their genuine interests and guiding them in an exciting process of college readiness and application: “college success” is not determined by the quantifying values, but by the growth of a student as a person and the fulfillment of his or her academic goals.
