Many talented lower-income, first-gen students lack access to our nation’s best colleges. Our @CollegePoint initiative, in partnership w/ @MatriculateOrg, provides these students with free, virtual near-peer guidance to apply to & attend top universities: https://t.co/xxBRuCJAsP

🎉🙌 It’s important to celebrate regardless! Our virtual advisors are eager to assist you with navigating your financial aid packages, helping you look for scholarships, and weigh out your options. We also wanted an excuse to post Timothèe Chalamet 😉.

This is largely because many first-gen students don’t know about the resources available on campus. Although our virtual advisors can’t be there through your entire college career, we’re eager to equip you with the knowledge you’ll need to start your journey successfully! 🙌

��When I stumbled across an email from CollegeBoard about both Collegepoint and UStrive, I immediately took the opportunity. Thank God that I did. Going to college is something that’s real for me now. It’s scary, but real!”

We’re thrilled for your success, Makayla! 🎉💙
