Summer Bridge Program
A special feature for our graduated seniors is the bridge program. This program enables eligible seniors going to college in the fall to participate in a unique program catered to thier individual success. The summer bridge program consists of one-to-one in meetings, review of financial award letters and guidance based on the student’s level of unmet financial need, identification of key summer deadlines at the college the student planned to attend, assistance with completing paperwork related to college admission, and assessment of whether the student faced social or emotional barriers to college enrollment in the fall.
