The 10,000 Degrees College Opportunities Summit is a summer college success program that focuses on supporting rising high school seniors prepare for their senior year and beyond through a *FREE* weeklong series of virtual workshops and activities with recent college graduates. We firmly believe in helping students reach their full potential regardless of race, ethnicity, gender, documentation status, or socioeconomic background.

WHEN WILL I RECEIVE THE ZOOM LINKS FOR THE WORKSHOPS AND PARENT NIGHT?
Students and Parents will begin receiving links in early July to the email they provided when registering.
CAN I PARTICIPATE IN OTHER “COLLEGE ACCESS” PROGRAMS AT THE SAME TIME?
Yes! If a student participates in another college access program that provides similar services to 10,000 Degrees, they can still participate in the 10,000 Degrees College Opportunities Summit, provided that it does not conflict with other summer programming offered by other college access organizations.
WHAT HAPPENS AFTER THE 10,000 DEGREES COLLEGE OPPORTUNITIES SUMMIT?
Students attending a partner high school site will have access to *FREE* year-round workshops and support from a near-peer 10,000 Degrees Fellow. Students will receive email and text updates for upcoming financial aid workshops, college application workshops, and other events to support their matriculation to college.
