College Prep
The process of transitioning from high school to college can be stressful for a lot of students and their family. Our College Prep program provides in-depth student trainings, workshops, and valuable insight and exposure to college and career opportunities to students 9th - 12th grade. Assistance to seniors with applications, scholarships, and test prep, along with college/university recruiter presentations, career exploration and college tours are some of the services that we offer to ensure that students successfully graduate from High School, are ready to seek employment opportunities and enrolled in college or other certified programs.
A College Prep Successful Story
__________
We had another scholar that really wanted to attend Florida Atlantic University. However as a first-generation student coming from a low-socioeconomic household, she did not think it was possible.
Ms. Loiz encouraged her to apply. Due to high-test scores, great academic history as a Cambridge AICE and Dual Enrolled student at PBSC, she gained acceptance. Every scholarship that she was encouraged to complete, she did so.
She was awarded $10,000 from the Your Community Foundation Scholarships, and countless micro scholarships. This student graduated as the salutatorian of her graduating class! She also gained employment at Lake Worth West Bridges program, under the very same umbrella that assisted her. Now, she is a full-time first-year student at Florida Atlantic University, and a part-time employee of Lake Worth West’s Bridges program.
