Attention Latinx Juniors who are interested in attending UNCG!

This summer UNCG is offering students an opportunity to participate in a 4-day college readiness program on UNCG’s campus. This is a wonderful way to prepare for your college applications and get a taste of what it’s like to be a college student!

UNCG CHANCE is a unique experience that provides Latino/Hispanic high school students with the opportunity to engage in intensive, four-day college readiness. Participants will have the opportunity to engage with university faculty, students, and staff to develop a peer/professional network that forges positive and healthy mentorship connections focused on academic success and personal growth. During a creative combination of days, students will experience a “day in the life of a college student”.
