LAUNCH - Special Scholarships Program New Student Orientation

I learned about the special scholarship and how it work and what the requirements are. And how to be successful in college.

Great information regarding scholarship info. Easily understood and very clear when giving info.

I learned a lot about how college works. I learned about the different types of resources that can help me improve. There is tutoring, I can also ask for advice by the advisors. I learned that I need to complete 30 credits. I also learned that 2.5 and below can result into a Academic Recovery.
It is important to submit FAFSA or the MSFAA by March 1st. I also need to do 10 hours and that it needed to participate scholarship nights. It is also important to record the impact after every event that you participated in,
With this new information that I learned it helped with making a plan and schedule to manage everything for the future especially those nights with the scholarship nights. With the advice from the current students, it give me a perspective on how college life and work will be.

Gave insight on Campus Resources that are available to us such as Advising, Financial Aid and the Tutoring and Writing Center. In case we were not informed on the events that are mandatory during this semester such as the Whooo'se Who? Event, Scholarship Nights, Fall Fest and Progress Reports that are due.

It was a nice experience to be greeted by such friendly and energetic faces, they offered helpful advice to make my introduction to college so much better. I've learned about all the different opportunities to make the college experience better I look forward to being an owl.

This event really helped me understand the certain requirements for the scholarship, deadlines and access for the scholarship. The event also prepared me for important dates like registering for classes.
