Thrive Scholar
CurrentThrive Scholars is a selective national 6-year program empowering first-generation, low-income students from underrepresented backgrounds by guiding them towards academic and professional success. The College Success team focusing on college success and professional development for high-achieving, underrepresented first-generation students. Chosen from out of 1400+ from across the nation, I engage in two summer academies: First in Amherst College focusing on College Access and then in Northwestern University focusing on Career Development and College Success. I am also expected to engage in 300+ hours of Math and English/Coding classes in the summer academies to prepare me for college level work.
