Thanks to our generous community partner Southwest Airlines, College Visions is flying admitted students out to visit college this spring. Southwest also supports professional development travel for College Visions staff. Recently CV advisor Francesca and operations manager Joshua used vouchers provided by Southwest to fly to Washington, D.C. and participate in data training offered by the National College Access Network.

STAFF SPOTLIGHT: Gleyribel Rodriguez
This month, we had the pleasure of speaking with our very own alum Gleyribel Rodriguez, Mount Pleasant High School class of 2008 and University of Rhode Island class of 2012. Gleyribel is a CV three-fer—a CV alum, a current CV advisor, and a CV donor. Gleyribel is an amazing combination of compassionate and dedicated youth worker, and highly organized fund development coordinator. We are very lucky to work with her. Thank you for sharing your story Gleyribel, and thanks for everything you do to support CV!
STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Cheryl
I joined College Visions at the end of 11th grade, and I’m now a student at Rhode Island College majoring in Computer Science. Before I joined CV I thought they would just help me get into college and that would be it. But thankfully they still stand beside me through this process.
