Most of our students will be the first in their family to go to college. They are extremely excited and proud of this accomplishment, but also very concerned about funding. In our experience, we see the excitement of the college acceptance, but also the worry of the financial aid offer. So many of our students earn outstanding scholarships and their families contribute all they possibly can to make up the rest. This doesn't leave much money for the "extras", so we love to surprise our students and celebrate them with some well-deserved things for their dorm! Our Decision Day Celebration is a chance for us to reward them with such items as mini refrigerators, a coffee maker, and a camera for their hard work and making the decision to REACH HIGHER!
