Do you need some good news? Meet Micaela! She entered College Visions in the summer of 2015 with the dream of going to college, and with a need to access the knowledge and resources to get there. With support from her CV advisor, Francesca, Micaela is now going through the college application process and has a new outlook on her future because of the opportunities you help provide.
I feel very thankful for being part of College Visions! My concern was that I would not be able to attend college because of personal hardships. Being at College Visions has proved to me that I have a chance, and that there are people like me out there who have gotten very far! Not only does CV prepare you for interviews, they help you with supplemental essays, and ESPECIALLY with financial aid!! The help I receive boosted my confidence in getting accepted to schools.
