What Our Students Say
"It's beautiful in La Jolla, and it's been so fun getting to know the area, from snorkeling, to hiking and exploring San Diego. My GPA is around a B+/A-, and even though it's been much more challenging than high school, I've thoroughly enjoyed it. At the end of this quarter, I'll have taken 11 classes, including 6 that were beyond general education requirements. It's been a really great experience getting to work on major relevant classes so early, and it's keeping me very excited for the future. I couldn't have had any of these expereiences without [scholarship] support, and every time I think about this I'm just filled with gratitude. The gifts you've provided can never be repaid, but I hope to pass them along in my future, to give other seniors the same opportunity I was given. Thank you so much for the support. It means more to me than you will ever know."
