LAUNCH! New PG Promise Scholar Orientation

At LAUNCH I learned about the promise scholarship and what to do in order to keep it.

I learn how the Promise Scholarship will work. I learned many ways to earn hours for this Scholarship. I also discovered many opportunities that PGCC offers.

On my first day on campus, just visiting, I was pretty excited walking through the double doors. I was met with a bingo activity, and found everyone there so nice in greeting themselves in polite ways. We were broken up into 3-4 groups that would show us helpful resources, like joining STRIVE. They gave us a red ticket we could use to get pizza and a drink, and we were able to catch up with people I knew at the time. All in all, this experience was very helpful, helping me around campus, knowing how to fill in hours, and ECT.

Was a decent session, left with some questions most of it was very clear

Hi! I attended this event back in August! I really enjoyed the session and was given lots of information regarding the Promise Scholarship. It helped me understand all the requirements and how to keep the promise scholarship.

When I received the email that I had been awarded the Promise Scholarship, words couldn't express how grateful I was. So when I attended the LAUNCH! Promise Scholarship Orientation it not only helped me learn more about the scholarship, but also helped me make new friends on campus. It gave me more insight into what happens on campus as well.

This event was very informational, it was my second time on the largo campus so I had a small time finding where the event was. The event informed me of all the requirements in order to stay in the program. One part I really enjoyed was when past promise scholars spoke out about their experiences and where they are in life currently.
