Announcement: College Horizons 2010 - Student Applications Available for Download!

 

Dear High School Students, Parents, and Counselors,

 

College Horizons is excited to kick-off our fall recruitment season and invite current 10th and 11th grade American Indian, Alaska Native, and Native Hawaiian students to apply to our CH 2010 summer programs!  As you may know, College Horizons is a pre-college program where 90 students work with 60 college admissions officers, college counselors, essay specialists, and other educators in a five day "crash course" on the college application process.

 

This summer, College Horizons will offer 3 programs and we are proud to partner and be hosted by the:

.. University of Hawai'i Hilo (Hilo, HI) - June 12-16,

.. Lawrence University (Appleton, WI) - June 26-30,

.. University of Puget Sound (Tacoma, WA) - June 26-30.

 

The eligibility information and application materials are available on-line for download and our website also has short films of our recent summer programs: www.collegehorizons.org.  The deadline to apply is February 1, 2010 (1st round), Feb. 26 (2nd round), and applications might be accepted until May 1 if space is available.  Finally, as a reminder, we have significant financial aid  available (for tuition and airfare) to students who qualify.  

 

We welcome your application and hope you become one of our accomplished alumni - every year, 99% of participants go on to college; 95% typically to four-year institutions and a third to very selective institutions; moreover, 85% of our alumni graduate college within five years!  

 

Please help us get the word out on the CH 2010 programs and forward this email on. A flyer is attached and pasted below is a brief description of the program.  Information on our Graduate Horizons 2010 program for Native college students/graduates to be hosted by Arizona State University in Tempe, AZ on July 17-20 will be sent out shortly.  Please contact us if you have any questions! 

 

Thank You, 

Carmen Lopez, Executive Director, EdM (Navajo)

Whitney Laughlin, Assistant Director & Founder, EdD

Christine Suina, Program Coordinator (Cochiti Puebelo)
