Between college applications, midterms, and the excitement of a new academic year wearing off, we often hear that ambitious goals for the year fall through the cracks as schools push to winter break.

Our college webinar is back by popular demand, and we are excited that our new Director of Educational Partnerships, Matthew Swenson, will be co-presenting with Student Advisory Council member, Janey Smith.

Matthew brings a wealth of knowledge around college admissions and access, with a focus on increasing well-matched postsecondary enrollment, persistence, and attainment rates for students of color and students who are economically disadvantaged.

Janey is a longtime member of the Challenge Success Student Advisory Council, and as a freshman at Elon University, she has a unique perspective to share on the college search and transition from high school.
