Mission Statement
Founded in 1993, College Summit is a national non-profit organization with a mission to transform the college admissions process and increase the college enrollment rate of low-income students. Today's college admissions system leaves behind a key portion of America's talent: low-income, academically mid-tier students. Working in partnership with the critical players in the college-access challenge - students, parents, high schools, and colleges - College Summit enables all these players to accomplish what none can do alone: ensure that the community harnesses the talent of all college-capable students.
Description
College Summit is looking for volunteers that would serve as writing coaches and college coaches. You do not need to be a trained writer of English teacher to serve in this capacity. The workshops will be held for four day on a college campus (University of Miami, Barry University or NOVA Southeastern University).
These workshops are demanding (emotionally and physically) but its one of the most rewarding experience you will ever have...trust me! To find out more about the organization you can log on to www.collegesummit.org . To sign up and register, please click on the link below:
