๐ Behind every success story is a community that believes in you.
For first-generation students like Nubia, Green Halo provides more than help with applications and deadlines. It provides mentorship, encouragement, and people who genuinely care about their success.
We're honored to be part of our scholars' stories. Hear from Nubia, Class of 2026, about the impact Green Halo has had on her life โฌ๏ธ
"There are many, but the two biggest impacts on my life that Green Halo was a part of were the help I received during the application process and the mentorship I received while being here at college. ๐๐ ๐ฎ ๐ณ๐ถ๐ฟ๐๐-๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป ๐ฐ๐ผ๐น๐น๐ฒ๐ด๐ฒ ๐๐๐๐ฑ๐ฒ๐ป๐, ๐ถ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ ๐ต๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐ฝ๐ถ๐ฐ๐๐๐ฟ๐ฒ ๐บ๐๐๐ฒ๐น๐ณ ๐๐ฎ๐ธ๐ถ๐ป๐ด ๐๐ต๐ฒ ๐น๐ฒ๐ฎ๐ฝ ๐๐ผ ๐ต๐ถ๐ด๐ต๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฒ๐ฑ๐๐ฐ๐ฎ๐๐ถ๐ผ๐ป, ๐ฒ๐๐ฒ๐ป ๐๐ต๐ผ๐๐ด๐ต ๐ ๐ธ๐ป๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ ๐๐ต๐ฎ๐ ๐ ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐ฎ๐น๐น๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ ๐ฑ๐ผ. Green Halo helped me in every step of the way from weighing pros and cons of where to apply, the actual application process and essay, and making the final decision on my future.
I've had two mentors at Green Halo, each of whom have been incredibly helpful. I am given important and personalized resources, sometimes without even asking for them, I am given reminders of important deadlines as well as upcoming events. I have virtual meetings to discuss where I am in life and my next steps. What has been different for me at Green Halo aside from other mentorship experiences I received is that I got to know them on a personal level and ๐๐ต๐ฒ๐ ๐๐ต๐ผ๐๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฎ ๐ด๐ฒ๐ป๐๐ถ๐ป๐ฒ ๐ถ๐ป๐๐ฒ๐ฟ๐ฒ๐๐ ๐ถ๐ป ๐บ๐ ๐๐๐ฐ๐ฐ๐ฒ๐๐." โ Nubia, Class of 2026, University of Dayton
