Helping Military Connected Students Build College Portfolios

Is your military-connected student heading to college? Building a college portfolio early can make a world of difference — especially for students who move 6 to 9 times before graduation. This webinar, made possible by the Navy Child and Youth Programs, walks military families through how to create and maintain an organized, portable college-bound portfolio that travels with your student no matter where military life takes you. MCEC® team members Marie McGarry and Yasmina Aragón — both active duty military spouses and moms currently navigating the college process themselves — share practical, firsthand advice on building a portfolio that supports your student through college applications, financial aid, scholarship searches, and school transitions. In this webinar, you'll learn: What a college-bound portfolio is and why it matters for military students How to build both a digital and hard copy portfolio Free platforms for creating digital portfolios (Canva, Adobe Express, PortfolioBox, and more) How to organize key tabs: financial aid, college information, correspondence, academics, school records, and activities Tips for managing FAFSA, GI Bill benefits, and scholarship deadlines How to build a strong student resume — and why to start early What colleges look for in letters of recommendation How to keep your portfolio up to date through PCS moves and school changes Whether your student is in middle school or already in their senior year, it is never too early — or too late — to get organized. 📥 Access resources and tools referenced in this webinar at MilitaryChild.org 📅 Register for upcoming MCEC® parent webinars at MilitaryChild.org 📩 Connect one-on-one with an MCEC® Military Student Consultant: msc@militarychild.org The Military Child Education Coalition® (MCEC®) is a nonprofit organization dedicated to supporting all military-connected children by educating, advocating, and collaborating to resolve education challenges associated with the military lifestyle.
