Our Clubs are continuing to provide virtual mentoring services and resources for both high school students in our College Bound program and graduates in our College Bound Alumni program so there is continuity of support as they work toward their college and career goals. We are committed to ensuring our students are equipped to successfully navigate their academic careers and have plan for higher education even during unprecedented times.
We are currently offering academic advisement and webinars on a variety of relevant topics via Zoom. These online sessions cover subjects such as help with virtual learning, stress and anxiety management, college acceptance and financial aid award letters, filing for unemployment and applying for jobs, time management, and more.
Pre-register using the “Register Here” link associated with each webinar. Upon registration, students will receive an email with the code and password to access the webinar.
