This study sought to understand the questions current Montana high school students had about going to college. The best way to find this information was to approach the students themselves as the experts (Paterson, 2015) and engage in a phenomenological study to describe the lived experience of high school students in the anticipatory time prior to transitioning to college. Approaching them in a game-focused manner allowed for a shared exchange of information and generated a robust dataset.
