College and Career Exploration Highlights
Tis the season! College submission season, that is! High school seniors spent all of December completing and submitting their college applications with the assistance of Norman, our High School Program Associate. To celebrate their diligence, the high school program team put together a Senior Gala to highlight their efforts and celebrate this milestone.
College acceptances are already rolling in. We're happy to announce that two Fivers received Questbridge scholarships to UPenn and Haverford College. The scholarship covers the cost of tuition for four years! The high school team is continuing to support Fivers through their application and decision-making process, and we look forward to sharing more good news in the months to come.
The Fiver pride shines bright through Shaine and Janet, two senior Allianz Fellows. These Fiver role models support the program team by coordinating and executing programs and family events and assisting with youth and family outreach. "Being in this Allianz Fellowship has been a really great social experience. Being able to work with people from all kinds of backgrounds, feeling acceptance no matter what the circumstances…I feel like I'm being prepared for the world beyond me," Shaine reflected on her participation in the fellowship program.
