To help high school students across the New York City area prepare for the admissions process, the New York Mets partnered with ACT and Kaplan Test Prep for College Prep Day on Thursday, May 2 at Citi Field.
As part of College Prep Day, experts from ACT and Kaplan offered guidance for college applicants navigating the admissions process. Students were able to enjoy video spots featuring Mets players describing their college experiences.

The students concluded their day at the ballpark with a game between the Mets and the Cincinnati Reds.
Thank you to all the students, Kaplan and the New York Mets who came out to support the incredible event. Together, we help more people achieve education and workplace success.
