Summer College Advising from ASP

Summer College Advising from ASP

Please see the note below from our Academic Service Provider (ASP) regarding summer support:

While this summer looks a little bit different than years previous, we are still offering summer college advising for students who want to participate.  We have set up a Remind account to push out information for families that want to stay informed and ASP is starting to pilot some college access initiatives in Google classroom with students participating in our summer activities.
  
ASP Summer Intern Programming 
We have six interns from the University of Chicago this summer.  Three of them are our own alumni and the other three are from the DFW area.  One is an international student who attended high school in the United States and has a lot to share about what that process was like, especially when she found out that a lot of colleges wouldn't consider her for financial aid after she had applied.  All of our interns made their college choice based on financial aid and are excited to help our students with everything they can this summer.    

They have also created a mentorship program that will offer small groups and one-on-one mentoring throughout the summer.  They will have open office hours on Mondays and Wednesdays from 1:00-3:00 and Tuesday and Thursdays from 9:00-11:00.  The full calendar is on our website, just as it was throughout the spring.
